DESCRIPTION
Flex 3 in Action is an easy-to-follow, hands-on Flex 3 tutorial. Chock-full of
examples, this book goes beyond feature coverage and helps readers put Flex to

foundation that readers can build on as the complexity of their projects increases.

MARKET INFORMATION
New web applications require engaging user-friendly interfaces―and the cooler,
the better. With Flex 3, web developers at any skill level can create high-quality,
effective, and interactive Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) quickly and easily.
Flex removes the complexity barrier from RIA development by offering sophisticated
tools and a straightforward programming language so you can focus on
what you want to do instead of how to do it. And now that the major components
of Flex are free and open-source, the cost barrier is gone, as well!
