Switch from PureMvc to Mate for Flex development (ToDoList 2010) | Rive.be | Blog
I don’t like loosing time. So what do we need? Ultra-rapid development after my official Nascom working hours. If that great idea in my head, isn’t quickly translated in a working application, I’m loosing that vibe. After some days I just don’t open the project anymore. (Another unfinished project)
So here’s where I’m hoping Mate will change things. I’ve read some great reviews from Tony Hillerson, Rapture in Venice, FusionCube, Explorers Club and Richard Lord from Flash On The Beach. There’s some buzz going arround (Adobe Max PDF). And the joy factor seams to be there.
Theoretically it should be easy to make the switch between 2 different frameworks. If you did follow the MVC pattern as strictly as possible.
It’s curious, coming from Cairngorm, transfered to PureMVC, then Multicore and Pipes and now on to Mate… I must be crazy thinking I will find the time to re-factor all these classes again.
Rien Verbrugghe -- planning the switch to Mate for 2010. Mate is one of the top 20 libes to look at -- number 15 in fact -- so, assuming we look at one library every three or four days, this definitely puts Mate into the 2010 timeframe. Especially leaving gaps for catching up with people over the holidays and catching up with the missed writing days of Pragprowrimo
