HI Ajar
You must remember that feathersui- as the name says-- is for UI components. Whereas for business//enterprise apps Flex has everything needed (you can create skins for flex apps and they look pretty nice- atleast for business / enterprise apps→ again games etc require a different level of graphics/ visual layout so that use case is covered well by FeathersUI + Starling framework. If you look at the activity of Apache Flex- adoption of flex has only increased after Adobe licensed out Flex to the Apache foundation. Many people would say that had Macromedia been in charge of Flex (and not been taken over by Adobe)→ they would never have given up Flex (like Adobe has done).... The level of maturity of Flex, the kind of support/documentation/books/tutorials it has are simply incomparable. I worked with JavaScript for some time before I turned to Flex (as it turns out I brought a Flash Builder license a few months before Adobe open sourced Flex- again something I find difficult to believe). And I am simply shocked as to why there is such hype surrounding Js based mobile apps-- its a real pain to create an app of any complexity in JavaScript. I think maybe that's because Flash is Adobe’s proprietary tech→ so all the other biggies are shutting Adobe out by adopting JavaScript? I think I digressed a bit from your question- just thought I would let you know how I feel about Flex when compared with JS(in addition to your question about feathersui) :) Yours sincerely, Arvind, Dievs Software. From: Ajar Sent: Wednesday, 5 June 2013 13:53 To: users@flex.apache.org Carlos, Elena & Arvind hello I have a very straight forward question to you and everyone else on this list: Is flex really relevant for mobile? This is asked due to its dependency of the regular stage display list, and inability to take advantage of stage3d performance. Why should anyone choose flex over feathersUI for mobile development? I love flex mainly for web desktop apps But it seems like it needs to be re-written on top of stage3d to be relevant for mobile And that's exactly what Josh did when he created feathers... Your thoughts?
