Adobe Flash ushered in an era of graphically rich digital experiences that ran across major operating systems, browsers, cell phones, and other mobile devices. While users surely enjoyed the rich media Flash delivered to them, many traditional application developers found the Flash platform challenging.
Flex 3 responded to this challenge by providing a powerful suite of tools that allows developers to easily build graphically rich Internet applications based on Flash. As Flex has become widely adopted, new applications are released almost daily and the bar is ever rising for developers to create unique, beautiful, and usable applications.
Creating Visual Experiences with Flex 3.0 shows developers how to visually enhance applications built with Flex and AIR through a combination of thoughtful design and structure implemented through skinning, styling, transitions and effects, and Photoshop-like filters.
In this book, authors Juan Sanchez and Andy McIntosh have created the de facto guide to visually enhancing Flex/AIR applications. Coverage includes:
Creating Visual Experiences with Flex 3.0 will be the go-to guide for traditional developers and seasoned designers alike who want to take the design of Internet applications to the next level.
