Maybe Flex is not flexible enough for a rails backend. And the typical RoR developers prefers to stay away form flash anyway. But there is this openlaszlo project with rails backend and today I have learned that there is http://www.getindi.com, which is based on actionstep flash framework and has a rails serverside On 5/9/06, Larry White <ljw1001@gmail.com> wrote:> > Yeah I know this is a bit of a weird question since everybody seems to be > going ajax - just curious > > _______________________________________________ > Rails mailing list > Rails@lists.rubyonrails.org > http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails > > >-- Roberto Saccon -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I''m finding Flex extremely good and easy to use. Flex is Free The SDK and compiler cost nothing. Adobe are making the money on the IDE Flex Builder. I think the best thing about Flex is that it can easily consume and publish to XML based URL services to create dynamic applications with a rich client. At the moment I''m porting my cms, eribium (http://www.eribium.org), to Flex so people will have an alternative to html/ajax, get all the benefits from a rich internet application and be able to log in directly from the desktop, without a browser. Stuart Eccles has some great tutorials on integrating flex with rails: http://www.liverail.net/articles/2006/04/16/rubyonrails-1-1-and-flex-2-0-pt-1 http://www.liverail.net/articles/2006/05/06/rubyonrails-1-1-and-flex-2-0-pt-2 Cheers, Alex -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
