Hi, last weekend I found the list „web application frameworks" on github [1]
I was wondering why FlexSDK or FlexJS is not on this list. Isn’t Flex a "web application framework"? It seems that list is generated automatically by the star-ratings of every project hosted in github in that category. FlexSDK [2] has 258 stars and the FlexJS [3] has 27. Is the acceptance really so low and a niche product compared to the first one - Meteor - on that list? It seems that Meteor is the new way to go for a lot of developers who are starting a new project in 2016…. If Flex (SDK and JS) would be on that list, maybe more people - who are maybe not familiar with Flex - could use and maybe improve Flex. As I said in my subject, a little bit promotion for flexJS. I don’t know the current user statistics of the flex homepage or the flex installer. Does it makes sense to add a github star button on the flex homepage or the installer? So everybody who likes Flex and visits the site or runs the installer, can give a star. So the more stars Flex has, the more popular will it get (according to that list). And I think more users will also result in more active contributors. Ok, the current contributors per star quote is really really good. 37% for flexJS and 13% for flexSDK. For Meteor it’s 0,82%.
