Just some pages about what my intentions are with this blog.

Mate presentation

Posted by jurlan on September 18, 2008

Last night (at 0:30 my time) I was lucky enough to be able to attend the live meeting organised by the Atlanta Flex Meetup Group, which was broadcasted throught Adobe connect.

The topic was the new framework in the Flex world called Mate (pronounced mah -tey). Developed by AsFusion, Mate is an tag-based, event-driven framework that many will find far easier to work with. Using the MXML language, Mate provides an easy map to define how your application handles its events. Laura Arguello from AsFusion was the guest and main star. She showed the many features and how to get started working with Mate. The presentation covered best practices and real world examples.

Needless to say it was a stunning presentation, including a sexy spanish accent ;-) There is not a single doubt in my mind that Mate is the way to go (at least for me). In this blog I will be focussing on how to make real world applications using Mate and WebOrb.

Stay tuned

Hello world!

Posted by jurlan on September 3, 2008

Welcome to my Blog.

It will mostly contain stories or frustrations about my adventures in Adobe Flex. The main goal is to provide some getting started information by showing ‘real world examples’. The first post will be what I want to achieve and the last one will (hopefully) be the solution.

What’s in between, well, that’s up to you ;-)
