Alain, I'm new here and also new working with Flex and AIR (~3 months of work in my first app).
I've been working as a web developer for about 10 years. All of my colleagues which are web dev as well are starting creating mobile apps using HTML/CSS/JS tools, such as PhoneGap (most of them). IMHO, it's because is easier (they don't need to learn a new language) and the biggest companies are promoting e supporting those frameworks a lot. Also, most of them had never heard about Adobe Flex as a mobile app tool. I'm loving it (Flex). I Googled a lot figuring out the pros and cons on Flex vs other cross-platform tools and my choice is for Flex. But seems like the market, i.e. all the world, are betting on these tools. I'm on you. I don't understand what's going on the CEO's mind. =) Att, Cadu de Castro Alves Web & Mobile Developer www.oitodigital.com.br On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 1:19 PM, Alain Ekambi <[email protected]>wrote: > @Jeffry > > Just thinking ... > > I m Adobe CEO > > On one hand I have this awesome runtime I bough from Macromedia.
