Flex Indonesia

Cairngorm is the lightweight micro-architecture for Rich Internet Applications built in Flex or AIR. A collaboration of recognized design patterns, Cairngorm exemplifies and encourages best-practices for RIA development advocated by Adobe Consulting, encourages best-practice leverage of the underlying Flex framework, while making it easier for medium to large teams of software engineers deliver medium to large scale, mission-critical Rich Internet Applications.

Cairngorm is now evolving towards a project that will invite community leaders and enterprise adopters to partner with Adobe Consulting in the ongoing development of Cairngorm.

PureMVC is a lightweight framework for creating applications based upon the classic Model, View and Controller concept.

Based upon proven design patterns, this free, open source framework which was originally implemented in the ActionScript 3 language for use with Adobe Flex, Flash and AIR, is now being ported to all major development platforms.

Two versions of the framework are supported with reference implementations; Standard and MultiCore. 

In short, the Standard Version provides a simple methodology for separating your coding interests according to the MVC concept. Beyond that, the MultiCore Version allows multiple PureMVC applications to run within the same virtual machine; modular programming.

Though the two versions are very similar they are maintained separately, because for applications that don't need modular functionality (or on development platforms that lack support for it), the Standard Version is adequate.

Mate is a tag-based, event-driven Flex framework.

Flex applications are event-driven. Mate framework has been created to make it easy to handle the events your Flex application creates. Mate allows you to define who is handling those events, whether data needs to be retrieved from the server, or other events need to be triggered.

In addition, Mate provides a mechanism for dependency injection to make it easy for the different parts of your application to get the data and objects they need.

Note: The Spring ActionScript framework was formerly known as the Prana framework and has now been moved under the Spring umbrella as a Spring Extensions project.

Spring ActionScript is an Inversion of Control (IoC) Container for ActionScript 3.0, and more specifically the Flex framework. It enables you to configure objects and components in a non-intrusive way by describing them in an external xml document and having them loaded at runtime.

At its core is a Spring-ish application context and IoC container. The xml dialect for the application context is aimed to be Spring compliant.

Further, the framework also contains utility classes for configuring and extending Cairngorm and PureMVC applications, an MVCS base architecture and general utilities. In the future we’ll be looking into adding AOP support, and we’re always open for suggestions.
