Hi Ryan,
If you want, please share the code for openflux without flex dependencies,
your minimalcomps example is great, but seems that openflux is better to develop a few components that I need
thanks in advance

Nice job in taking on the SystemManager. That one would be fun.

Next up, the DragManager and Flex 4′s StyleManager, those things need complete overhauls.

Yes, but even if I turn on RSL the Flex app is still 101kb and you’ll also need to download a 565kb swf the first time you access the app.

I see RSL as temporarily trying to avoiding the issue instead of solving it.

“Although the code is almost identical, the OpenFlux app compiles to 77kb and the Flex app compiles to 205kb.”

Isn’t majority of that cached nowadays though?

Hi Ryan,

Im very interested trying OpenFlux, Im working in a huge Flex Enterprise App with more than 150 Flex Modules, so my question is How does OpenFlux interact with them, i mean its transparent for the developer?

Thanks Ryan, great job!!

The main spot I dropped features is mainly in my own SystemManager.

Keep in mind though I haven’t actually modified the Flex SDK or removed any code from it. The goal is to keep the initial dependancies low but stay compatible will all Flex features and include them in your app as needed.

“replace the parts can be done better”
So have you had to drop any features that plain Flex has ?

I’m still working out some issues that are pretty major before releasing a new swc and docs. The goal is to have this ready for prime time for 360|Flex.

Mainly just posting this as a tease for now

Ryan, startup speed is unbelievable. How can this dependency of Flex can be turned off? Simple application source code with extending from PhoenixComponent would be very helpful

Keep up the good job!
