To use Flex builder to make glorious RIAs, you should use Eclipse to keep your IDEs together. Since some of our members are not familiar with Eclipse or CFeclipse, we'll cover those first. I'll be bringing install CDs so that you don't have to go through the pain of downloading and setting up everything.
We'll do an intro to Flex and talk about Flex vs. scripting. After a roundtable about the state of our own user interface issues and problems, I'll do a sample flex app without interacting with ColdFusion.
The next meeting will start off with a follow-up and delve more into connecting Flex to ColdFusion.
Of course, connecting Flex to ColdFusion works much more smoothly if objects are in play, so we'll be ready to head into OOP basics again.
