Hi,
- ActionScript/Flex support is included in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate
Edition only [1]
- 30-day free fully functional trial period [2]. Afterwards you can ask
sa...@jetbrains.com to extend trial period.
- members of open source projects (e.g. Apache Flex committers) can
apply for a free license [3]
- IntelliJ IDEA personal license costs $199 whereas Flash Builder is $699
Some documentation resources:
- Feature overview [4]
- Embedded help: Language and Framework-Specific Guidelines |
ActionScript and Flex, also available online [5]
- More than 50 short video screencasts by John Lindquist at JetBrains TV
[6] (start from 'IntelliJ IDEA 11.1 Flex Features')
- Two articles at JetBrains wiki: quick start with AIR app for Android
[7], Flexmojos-driven workflow [8]
- A lot of 3rd party blog posts and tutorials in the Internet
You can try to start even without looking at docs: either Import Project
| <select Flash Builder workspace> or New Project | Flash Module.
Feedback and any questions are welcome at the forum [9], bugs and
feature requests - in the issue tracker [10]. Or just email me directly.

I thought to try the IDEA for my flex development, after seeing a lot of
discussions in this group and in linkedlin about the comparison between
IDEA and FB. I'm using FB for past 5 years (From FB3 to FB4.7). I really
don't know where to start in IDEA. I downloaded the community version and
installed it. after that I don't see any options to create a flex project.
or options to add a plugin to support flex project.
My Doubts are,
1. Can I create flex project in community version..?
2. Is there a trial version available for flex development ?
3. When compared to the cost of the FB4.7 and IDEA seems equal. How do you
guys(IDEA team) believe that you can attract the developers and most
importantly the Management peoples or the clients who is familiar
(almost addicted) with FB?
4. I don't see any dedicated page/product for "IDEA for Flex" in the IDEA
product page, do i really missed that page in their products page..?
