This provides information on my Flex demo apps.
It will be updated weekly as I push new demo apps.

Flex3 Tips and Traps (FTT)

FTT is my main Flex demo app, and it was created for three reasons:

• First, it's my central store for Flex development knowledge - efficient coding techniques, best practices, known bugs and workarounds.
• Second, it serves as a vehicle for exploring the capabilities of Flex. This app employs a wide range of Flex components and classes.
• Third, it allows potential employers to evaluate my Flex knowledge.

Among other things, FTT demonstrates CRUD functionality to a MySQL datastore through PHP. Much more information on FTT is available from inside the application using its About option.

Flex Exporations (FlexEx)

Like FTT, FlexEx is a showcase of Flex capabilities and my knowledge of them. However, while FTT explored traditional integrated application functionality, FlexEx is less focused.

FlexEx explores much standard application functionality (e.g., drag and drop) but it also explores web-centric features (e.g., RSS processing) and some more playful aspects of Flex (e.g., effects and animation).

FlexEx will be in flux over the next month - I'll add to it each week, and when it becomes too much of a hodge-podge I'll break it into multiple specialized FlexEx's (a FlexEx for video, another for HTML wrapper and Javascript interaction, etc.)

More Flex demo apps will be coming over the next month...
