360Flexpress – Saturday Wrap up and Sunday Agenda
Day one of the training was loads of fun. We accomplished a lot. For those of you that missed out, it’s a shame. We learned some great skills to apply to our Flex dev work. Here’s a link to a zip file. It contains the “backup” of our original POC mxml file as well as [...]
360Flexpress – What to bring with you
Not everyone has been to a 360 event (yet! LOL), so it’s always helpful for us to sort of give a rundown on what to bring. In addition, this is the first 360Flexpress event so we wanted to make sure we’re all on the same page.
The following items are “must bring” for you to have a great learning experience.
You – As silly as it sounds, you’d be surprised at the random “Can I just leave my tape recorder?” question. This is training, so you need to be there alert and ready to learn. (Speaking of, if you haven’t registered yet, do it now!)
A laptop – Technically, you can bring like an iMac I guess, but that’s probably not something you want to lug around. There are no machines on-site to rent, borrow or steal. Therefore, if you don’t have one, call up Aunt May and ask if you can borrow hers for the day.
Flex Builder 3 Installed – Since Flash Builder 4 is a ways away still, we’re going to be learning on Flex Builder 3. It’s what you will use at work for a good quarter of a year yet, so don’t worry it’s not “old hat” just yet. There’s also the 30 day trial if you haven’t dabbled with Flex Builder yet. The trial is good enough for this weekend.
360flexpress Hands-On – Getting down to the wire for great training!
Some of you may be wondering what type of application your gonna build this weekend. While the application can’t be too complex since we only have a weekend, we also want to keep it relevant enough to teach you some great skills.
One thing I’ve never liked about a lot of training out there is that while you build pieces of an app, you don’t build the whole thing. There’s always things skipped, code prewritten for you, so you never get that continuous feel of going from nothing to finished product. That will not be the case here.
