Recently, I’ve installed Flash CS3 on my home PC because I wanna write little drawing program for my daughter. The result is very positive and I am why impress with it. And it really get to think about why it is so clumsy to develop GUI using Java or .Net.
First, I want to state that I am a backend development. Most of my time is struggle with binary stream, data log and tcp/ip using java and c++. The last gui program I wrote is about 7 years ago. However, I am interest to visual effect and wonder to present the data easily.
In order to write that little drawing program, I brought a primilary flash tutorial (on AS2) and it spent only 30 minutes (I have no background on flash before that). Then, it just works and the speed of development tool and final flash is good.
After that little success, I’m doing some more research on web and found Action script 3.0. It is very alike to any mature programming language.
It really get me wonder, is it something wrong with current GUI application which using Java or .NET. Why we need to model everything with plain code? should it just as simple as flash, draw something and just inside minimal code to handle it? Is it what current flash developer doing is the right way to implement GUI application.
I am very green on flash (30 mins arr..), maybe I am not in positive to make such as conclusion yet. Let see if I find more after dig into flash later.
