Question

Many Flex books seem to focus on people new to programming. E.g. I bought the book Learning Flex 3 from Adobe Developer Library, which IMO contained to much noise, like explaining basic programming concepts etc.

Is there a good book that don’t take the ‘new to programming’ approach?
I have been a developer for 10 years, and used languages like JavaScript, Java, Groovy, Ruby, C, PHP, Objective-C etc.
What I need most is to be familiar with the components and API.

Also, it would be nice if the book doesn’t focus on using Flex Builder / Flash Builder. (I use IntelliJ IDEA)

Answer 1

I found this book to be really good, and like you, I’m no beginner, and wanted something for developers, and not for people totally new to it.

This book was just that.

Cheers
