I wouldn’t call myself an expert on the subject, but I have had the opportunity to familiarize myself with both Angular and Create.js the past half year. Create.js makes sense to integrate into FlexJS. I’m not sure I understand how Angular would/could be integrated. It seems to me that Angular i

Angular is not really components. It’s more the glue that holds the components together. Basically, the selling point of Angular is how it binds javascript to HTML. Building custom Angular components is the hardest part of using the framework (and for the most part is not part of the framework

OK, I'll try to find time to read up on Angular. It does appear that TypeScript works with Angular. My rudimentary understanding of this stuff says that if you can use TS you should be able to use AS as well, but I could certainly be wrong. -Alex On 7/9/14 10:43 AM, "Harbs" wrote: >FWIW, here

Hmm. I might have been misunderstanding you. I thought you were discussing getting FlexJS with mxml markup, data binding and everything else to work with Angular. That’s what I don’t see as a fit. If you mean to simply write Angular applications in AS instead of JS and cross-compile using Falc

Well, like I said, I'm not an expert on this stuff. My brief look at Angular gave me the impression that it was about declarative markup for an extensible component model. I think that's what we have too. The key point that I'm not sure is sticking with folks is that FlexJS may have a default fr

It seems to me there’s a question of perception as to what “Flex” is. Historically, Flex has been an application framework centered around components. The equivalent in the JS world would probably be something like Sencha’s UI frameworks. (i.e. ext js) or JQuery UI. So, when people hear “Flex”

Angular does not provide the "lego". Rather, it describes how the pieces are supposed to connect and how the pieces should be constructed. Angular is all about connecting the html markup with javascript. Angular introduces custom html attributes (the default ones are prefixed ng but custom ones
