You build a Flex app using "components". The components can be implemented in an Actionscript file or an mxml file, or they can be stand-alone compiled .swfs, or can be in a library (.SWC).
Neither the manner of implementation of a component, or its physical location necessarily relate to the run-time component DOM. It is the run-time dom that determines the way you reference components from each other, and pass data around. Additionally, SWFLoader can be used to load an entire application into another application at run-time, and "modules" can be used to load components at run-time. Switching between visual states in the UI is handled by container and navigator components, and by "states".

Is it possible to embed one mxml within another (inside flex builder)? I only saw a few references to doing this, but no explanation or examples on how to actually do it. Ideally I would like to build the different components of my application in separate MXML files and then use a master container MXML to handle them all (transitions, etc) any tips? Thanks John K.
