You need a designer and developer for that project. Be it HTML, CSS, Flash, Flex, Mobile, Web or desktop. Now you have found a valuable resource, head over to the contact page or read my resume and let us build the solution. I am available for full time or contractor work.
You might not be aware that Adobe's Flash platform is now gaining rapid growth in the mobile phone and tablet space and now on the iPhone, iPod and iPad. I am ready to start development today, are you?
Flash is alive and well no thanks to Adobe PR
Despite Adobe’s best efforts to badly communicate with the public yet again, Adobe Flash, AIR and Flex is alive and well. they are only stopping development of the Flash mobile player which really means Android and Motorola web browsers that currently play flash content.
Adobe is focusing more on Flash platform development for the desktop and installed applications, which really means the AIR platform and the packagers for iOS and Android install applications.
There are many stories, blogs and articles around the web but I suggest people actually read the Adobe press releases rather than jump to conclusions from people and sites that are either ill informed or just plain wrong.
You can find more details on the Adobe site at this link
Personally, I actually think this is the right thing to do and focus more on application development than trying to optimize the player for web playback on mobile devices.
Flex 4.6 – New components and more
I could tell you about the new cool stuff in Flex 4.6 like,
- SplitViewNavigator
- CallOutButton
- SpinnerList
- DateSpinner
- ToggleSwitch
Or I could send you to the Adobe DevNet article here. For my money, the Spinner and DateSpinner list are priceless and a very welcome addition.
