Flex and Exambuff

How did I never hear of Flex? It's an application-based compiler for Flash, effectively, used for building "Rich Internet Applications" (i.e. Flash apps) without the need for a lot of the animation stuff that makes Flash so weird to use for the software designer.


The reason I even ran across it is that a chap named Tim Ruffles wrote an entire site (for commenting on scanned exam papers) that he's open sourced because it just wasn't working out for him. [article] [github] [site] The actual working-with-papers part is all in Flex.

I am very strongly considering making this another target for Decl.
