Apache Flex has great potential

by admin ·

Gift Harbs, experienced Adobe expert and member of the Apache Flex community, gives some insights into current developments and future directions of Apache Flex.

Apache Flex , formerly Adobe Flex, achieved the status of a recent official Apache project . As an Apache project, the project has been organized as specified by the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). The ASF is based on the premise that more progress and innovation are achieved when there is no hierarchy. Each volunteer has the same opportunities to contribute code to join the discussion on the mailing list and there to help out when it suits his tastes or needs. Nobody gives instructions to others.

Apache Flex is a development framework that can be used to develop cross-platform applications that run in Adobe Flash Player or Adobe Air. Flex was originally under the name Flex SDK to an Adobe product. The Flex SDK itself was indeed been some time under an open source license, the MPL, still, however, be components that are not available under a free license, required. This currently makes use under Linux, and also for the developed applications, Linux is not the primary platform, although the Flash Player and older versions of Adobe Air are available. Android on the other hand is one of the supported platforms.
