Looks like a great example of how Flash with AIR can create experiences that
would otherwise be impossible. Too bad it will be on the iPad.

It's an Adobe AIR application running on an unknown tablet device.

It's not an iPad and has nothing to do with it. Someone made a mistake  
with the copy for the article.


FYI, it's not impossible to do this in other languages or  
environments. There are other, more powerful frameworks that are  
robust for UI development and multi-touch systems than Flash.

It's how printed media might be transformed if people warm up to the whole
concept. It doesn't really matter what platform or device it runs on. We saw
some AIR and some Cocoa-touch. Looks pretty juicy but also a little
confusing and non-standardized (yet).

My mistake for saying such a strong statement. Of course there are other
frameworks available to do the same thing. Glad its not actually an iPad.

I think I'm just glad to see Flash being used for more than just flashy
websites and games. Flash can do a lot more than I see it get credit for on
a day to day basis. (And I know flash is used for more than just websites.
I've developed quite a few things outside the website realm)

I would like to see it in my hands to evaluate the usability. In theory it
could be brilliant but yes, people will have to warm up to it, and it will
have to be standardized.

Strictly out of curiosity Jon, would anyone actually choose a different
framework to develop this type of application? Does it make sense
considering development life cycle and platform availability?

2010-02-16 Thread Jon Bradley
I think the statement was justified... this is Flashcoders. I just  
wanted to state that developing UIs like that isn't limited to Flash,  
that's all. :)


After doing more research, it's entirely possible that this is running  
on an iPad. We just can't tell from the video if that really is, in  
fact, the case. Whether or not it's an iPad though doesn't mean much  
in the context of the coolness of the application itself.


I think any technology could be used to develop an application like  
this - from WPF/SL, Flash to more complex environments using Cocoa,  
openFrameworks and .


That last comment though – whether or not it makes sense – is probably  
the largest unknown. I can see many reasons why choosing Cocoa would  
be better than choosing Flash, in the case of iPhone development. Or,  
in the case of a windows platform target, I can see reasons why WPF/SL  
or Surface would be chosen.


I think we're all past the question of 'what framework/kit/language  
can we do that in?' If given the time, we can do pretty much anything  
in any language.


I like to think that these days, it's the hardware that limits us.

looks like "the return of multimedia" to me. but what do you mean with
"otherwise impossible"? I don't see any fundamental difference between
this app and any advanced multimedia app from the late nineties, created
e.g. with macromedia director. the only important difference is that we
have now touchscreens with much higher resolutions and multi-touch
capabilities.

Well it may be, but it doesn't mean that Flash was used anywhere on the 
project. Air supports HTML projects.

Just read the post about android, so I guess it is flash.
