Tour de Flex is like mana from heaven for newbie developers who want to know what Adobe Flex & AIR are capable of. It is an application built with Adobe AIR which is basically a component browser which showcases the Flex components with over 200 examples, source code and links to the relevant documentation.

What's more, is that it is also available as an Eclipse plugin which enables you to lookup these examples and source code directly from the Eclipse IDE. This is specifically useful if you are using Adobe FlexBuilder to create your Flex projects.

This is really exciting just because of the fact that you would have a complete tutorial and examples of all of the Flex components offline so you would not need to connect to the internet and search on google every time you want to view an example.

Read more about Tour de Flex on Greg Wilson's Blog. You can also download the AIR application as well as the User Manual from the Tour de Flex page.

    I installed Tour de Flex this morning...And I gotta say...I got chocked and impressed by it...I wasn't expecting that degree of quality and that bunch of example (Over 200!!! It's amazing!!!)...I went crazy browsing the examples! -:D


    Thanks for sharing this with the Community, I'm sure a lot of people are going to get even interested in RIA development...Which is great!


    Greetings,
