Re: [FLEXJS][Marketing] why should a web dev choose FlexJS?

Hi, ok that's an argument that I was not considering. Still think that people are more confortable with projects managed by a large company. Apache has great name and if project gets to a good shape a maturity I think OS foundations are better than a big company that can change the product or kill

Re: [FLEXJS][Marketing] why should a web dev choose FlexJS?

Yes, I've heard the support topic before. I'm not quite sure how other Apache projects handle support. I would think that many of these same "bigger clients" are using at least one Apache project's releases. Like HTTPD or Maven, etc. Do we know how "big" the support company would have to be?

Re: [FLEXJS][Marketing] why should a web dev choose FlexJS?

Hi Carlos, When that topic comes up, I talk about corporate-driven open source vs Apache open source. Corporate-driven open source has the advantage of serious money and marketing, but the disadvantage of an individual customer having less impact. In Apache open source, especially Flex where

Re: [FLEXJS][Marketing] why should a web dev choose FlexJS?

 I think that Apache is a big enough name that it is probably 'good enough' to give anyone confidence in using an Apache Project.  What we're missing is a formal support infrastructure.  I find that many of my bigger clients want a "formal" support agreement so they can yell at someone when

Hi, What's the feeling here about the trend of replacing web sites with mobile apps? I realize that not everyone in the world has a smart phone or tablet and now the baseline is a simple computer with a browser, but it seems more often that a company-specific app gets the end user more. These

It might be interesting to hear why people chose Flex in the first place. There was competition back then as well (Silverlight, Lazlo, and more). I believe that developer productivity was a major factor. And performance/bandwidth advantages of AMF. To me, FlexJS bets heavily on the developer

Re: [FLEXJS][Marketing] why should a web dev choose FlexJS?

To me, the key differentiators of FlexJS is: 1. We consider HTML a rendering engine rather than an authoring language. 2. End-to-end tooling which eliminates a lot of the pain points of web app development 3. MXML 4. Flexibly interchangeable component sets. Point #1 can be considered an
