This book is aimed squarely at IT developers. It is not a replacement for the documentation or tutorials that ship with Flex. Instead, this book is a practical course that takes you into the world of real-life RIA applications. After a brief introduction to Flex programming, the authors give you a master class on the process of creating reusable Flex components; show you how to create a slideshow and custom charts; give you practical advice on building large enterprise applications and debugging techniques; and explain the internal communication between Flex and external applications like Microsoft Excel.
