Discover how easy RIA development can be with this one-of-a-kind handbook from the Adobe Developer Library. Several clear, step-by-step mini-tutorials teach you about web services, event handling, designing user interfaces with reusable components, and more. After finishing this guide, you'll be able to build Flash applications ranging from widgets to full-featured RIAs using the Flex SDK and Flex Builder 3.0. With Getting Started with Flex 3, you will: 
Walk through sample RIA projects and see examples of amazing applications people have built with Flex 
Work with ActionScript 3.0 and the MXML markup language 
Build user interfaces using the controls and tools available with the framework 
Get a tour of controls available commercially and through open source 
Learn how Flex integrates with ASP.NET, ColdFusion, PHP, and J2EE in the server 
Build Flex-based widgets that let you display real-time data 
Use advanced controls to build 3D graphs, data dashboards, mapping applications, and more 
You'll find complete code for video players, a slideshow, a chat client, and an RSS reader, just to name a few. You also get plenty of tips, tricks, and techniques to leverage your existing programming skills, whether you come from an open source or Visual Studio-intensive background.
