Flex Brazil Manifesto

This manifesto collected my main contributions to the Brazilian Adobe Flex community through March 2008.

Articles and projects

• Setting Up a Flex 2 Environment and Hello World: an introduction to setting up the development environment for beginners.
• A Simple RSS Reader: an RSS reader built in a few lines with HTTPService.
• Adobe Flex: Playing with Effects: a demonstration of effects applied to Flex components.
• Exchanging Objects Between Flex and PHP: using VO, DTO, and TO objects with RemoteObject and a PHP back end.
• Adobe Flex Developer Census: an application created to map Flex developers in Brazil.
• Working with CSS in Flex Builder 3: creating CSS styles for Flex components.
• Architecture with Adobe Flex, PHP, and Zend Framework: a layered organization and practices for Flex applications backed by PHP.
