Turn: FlexChn. Cn Adobe Flex best learning path

At present, Adobe Flex has few learning materials in Chinese, and most of them are scattered. It is not suitable for systematic learning. Here I will list some of the materials I have read during my learning process. Of course, it is based on Adobe official documents, which are very detailed and should be the first choice for learning.

First download and install the Flex development tool Flex Builder 2. The Beta version of Flex Builder 3 is not very stable yet and is not recommended.

I found this document very suitable for beginners: the Flex Chinese help translated by Liu Gang from Daping, Chongqing, in pdf format.
This Chinese document consists of four chapters. Based on the examples, you can have a comprehensive feeling about the Flex development process, development tools, and development environment.

The next step is to lay the foundation. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a full force, and the next disk is unstable. In the future, there will be a lot of opportunities for you to seek help.
The foundation of Flex development is ActionScript 3. This language is similar to JavaScript, but the difference is also great (I will detail the differences between the two languages after a while ). ActionScript 3 is designed based on ECMAScript 4. In the future, JavaScript 2 will also be designed based on ECMAScript 4, but from JavaScript 1.5 (currently supported by all mainstream browsers) it takes a lot of learning to migrate data to ActionScript 3. However, once you have mastered ActionScript 3, it is easy to master JavaScript 2 in the future.

The following three Chinese documents are from the official Flash 9 Documents:
ActionScript 3.0 programming, in pdf format. Be familiar with it.
Use the ActionScript 3.0 component, in pdf format. For more information, see.
For more information about the language and component of ActionScript 3.0, see chm format. For more information, see.

Then you can only read the English documents. The official documents of Flex 2 are in English:
Getting Started with Flex 2, pdf format. After reading Flex Chinese help, this book does not need to be carefully read, because the content of Flex Chinese help is basically a translation of this book.
Using Flex Builder 2, pdf format. To do the best, you must first sharpen the tool and give a detailed introduction to the development tools.
Programming ActionScript 3.0, in pdf format. The content of the Chinese version of "ActionScript 3.0 programming" in Flash 9 is almost identical. Reading the Chinese version can save a lot of time.
Flex 2 Developer's Guide in pdf format. This book is a document that needs to be read from time to time during development. By the time you read this book, you are fully started. If you are familiar with this book (1858 pages), you are already a senior Flex Developer.

The book to be read in the Learning route: Flex Chinese help-> ActionScript 3.0 programming-> Flex 2 Developer's Guide, this is basically the fastest learning path. It takes about two weeks to read the first two books. The last one can be read during development. It takes only two weeks to get started with Flex. It takes about one year to become a master.
