Well, there are definitely two code bases, the current SDK where Apache Flex SDK 4.14.0 is the latest, and the FlexJS code base. I wouldn’t say it is two groups. I am working on both and others are too, but I am trying to spend most of my time on FlexJS because I believe that code base will also create better Flash-only apps someday in addition to the ability to cross-compile to JS. Back when Adobe ported the AS2 code to AS3, we had no idea what the performance characteristics of the AS3 runtimes would be under load so we pretty much did a straight port, and brought with us a lot of things that AS2 required to get performance that I think burden all Flex apps, even today. So the FlexJS code base is a total rewrite with the AS3 VM in mind, so that going forward it is easier for a volunteer-driven community to contribute to, it produces smaller and faster applications, and gives you the option of cross-compiling to JS. For example, if you’ve only got a few hours in the evening, are you going to try to patch the 13,000 line UIComponent, or patch or write some 100-line class? I know I would choose the latter as you then know the boundaries that your code change can affect. And if it has some unintended side-effect, you can simply offer it as an alternative because these classes are not welded together like they are in the current SDK. -Alex >On Feb 25, 2015 10:13 AM, "Peter Ent" <p...@adobe.com> wrote: > >> The FlexJS project/framework allows you to work with ActionScript and >>use >> MXML files while cross-compiling to JavaScript.
