Introduction to Flex 2.0 for Flash Developers
Flex 2.0 is still new to a lot of Flash developers who don't know how to approach it and get started. If your one of these people then this is your chance to get to grips with Flex from the beginning.
From the starting point 'What is Flex 2.0?", we'll progress to what I consider are some of the most important features, to get you up and running and building your own components and applications.
A good knowledge of OOP and ActionScript 2.0 is essential, ActionScript 3.0 a bonus.
