Flex / Spring Mobile Test Drive: Learn the Best Way to Build Java-Backed iOS, Android and PlayBook Apps
Flex is a powerful application framework for building first-class mobile applications for iOS, Android, and the BlackBerry PlayBook using a single programming model, a single tool, and a single code base.

July 27, 2011 in Flex
This is a follow up to my previous post on how to invoke a JavaScript function in an HTML document hosted in a Flex application (using the StageWebView).

After I posted Flex Charts on the iPad, a few people asked me how to enable some specific gestures on these charts to make them small screen-friendly. One specific question was: “How can we make a chart scrollable to show a lot of data on a smaller screen while making sure the vertical axis is […]
Flex Charts on the iPad
I continue to see a lot of interest for dashboards applications on mobile devices (particularly on tablets), and I think that interactive data visualization applications are really a sweet spot for Flex. As an example, I built a simple dashboard aggregator using the out-of-the box charting components available in Flex. The same application can run […]
Flex-Powered Multi-Touch Data Visualization on the iPad, Android, and the BlackBerry PlayBook
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve visited many enterprise customers to spread the exciting news and discuss their mobile strategy. I found it interesting that most of them were focusing primarily on tablets (instead of phones), and that the application they were focusing on was almost always a dashboard or at least involved a […]
