Good morning flare users,

this thread is meant to collect links to Actionscript libraries which have proven to be useful, particular but not exclusively in connection with flare.

Thanks

If you have it one your computer anyway it would of course be great if you can attacht a little demo using the lib (together with flare) to your post here.

Build Robust Modular PureMVC Apps in Flex, Flash and AIR

http://puremvc.org/

PureMVC is a framework which can help you to structure your application according to the ModelViewController pattern.

So far I didn't really managed to fit flare nicely into this framework (click here to see the current discussion on it) but the puremvc framework is definitely very well done and hopefully flare will move towards a more MVC supportive structure at one point.

BulkLoader is a minimal library written in Actionscript 3 (AS3) that aims to make loading and managing complex loading requirements easier and faster. It tries to hide the complexity of loading different data types in AS3 and provides a unified interface for loading, accessing and events notification for different types of content.

A great tween lib with a lot of inspiring features:

Flare has its own tween classes so in that sense maybe not recommend for flare projects as such. Nevertheless TweenLite/TweenMax might help you in other projects and it might also inspire you to help implementing some of the functionalities provided by TweeLite/TweenMax for the flare lib.

I started with this by trying to get one feature of TweenMax, the possibility to modify target values of running tweens, into flare

A long way to go I guess ....
