It wasn’t really possible to measure. The migration effort exposed lots of bugs and missing features in the Falcon and FalconJX compiler and the FlexJS SWCs. If I had to start over today, now that the compiler and framework have been debugged sufficiently to run most of the example, it probably would take me a couple of days to port the code and a week to debug it, but the true test is how long it would take someone new to FlexJS so it would be great to have others try it. And of course, as each person goes through the process of attempting to migrate their code we hope to learn what we need to do to make it easier for the next person. I’m in the middle of making some changes to the FlexJS APIs to make future ports easier. When I get that finished I hope to blog or wiki a comparison of the Spark code vs FlexJS code so folks can see what some differences and potential gotchas are. -Alex
