I am a ASP.NET web developer who wants to learn Flex and Actionscript.
I want to first learn how to develop web applications using Flex without having to pay for Flex Builder. From what I have researched so far there is a way to get Flex working with Eclipse and I did stumble upon this website:
http://systems.tinuum.net/?p=52

I tried to download the components they used, but I am still not sure how to get Flex working.
Can somebody please point me to a step-by-step guide on how to get started using Flex in Eclipse?

So, far it looks like you download Eclipse 3.5 + Flex 3.5 SDK + various plug-ins listed, but I’m not sure what to do next.

I am very interested in learning how to develop Rich Internet Applications using Flex, and would be extremely grateful if someone could help me get started.

Thank you!

    I don’t think there is a free eclipse based Flex plugin, so FlashDevelop would be the only free IDE (although this isn’t eclipse based obviously). You could also try FDT Pure if you can get any cash together, the license is only about 70 euros and would have enough features to get started.
