I am in The Flex Show

1 comments Posted by: Laura

I feel like a star. I was interviewed by John and Jeff of The Flex Show podcast about Mate Flex Framework. They have a very interesting interviewing style, where they ask you a question and then you go for like... 10 minutes, then they ask you another question, and so on. It's good because you don't get interrupted, which would be bad if you are trying to have a coherent thought. Not so good if you don't have much to say. Thankfully, I was able to manage it, I think :)

It is difficult to be able to give an overview of the framework by just telling about it, but if you are interested in trying Mate, it is a good high level overview.

You can listen to the podcast directly from their site, subscribe in iTunes or similar to their RSS or download the MP3 file directly.

Mate Flex Framework in public alpha

7 comments Posted by: Nahuel

A new Flex framework has been born. Actually, it is not really new, because we've been developing and using this framework for a long time, but it is now available to everybody.

"Mate" (pronounced "mah-teh" like latte) is a tag-based Flex framework that uses implicit invocation to route events to handlers using an "EventMap". Those handlers are a list of actions that is executed when the event is dispatched.

Doug McCune speaking at OC Flex

2 comments Posted by: Laura

We are delighted to have Doug McCune coming down from San Francisco to present at OC Flex this Thursday.

Besides being an exceptional Flex developer, Doug is one of the main contributors of FlexLib, a collection of open source Flex components and libraries. It is no surprise then that he will be talking about taking advantage of open source ActionScript libraries to use in your own projects.

The fact is that there is a lot out there that you might not know it exists, or even if you did, you might not know how to use it. Doug will be giving examples of how to use these libraries and even combine them into cool applications. You can find more information at OC Flex's website and Doug's post about the meeting.

This is a meeting not to miss!

It seems that 2008 will bring a lot traveling for us. First, I will present a session at cf.Objective() in early May and then I will present at WebManiacs towards the end of May. We also hope to attend 360 Flex in Atlanta and most likely 360 Flex in SoCal closer to home.
