PureMVC has grown from being a simple solution for Flex/Flash and AIR developers to write more maintainable AS3 client code to being a solution for client or server applications on many platforms. With many open-source offerings, the API docs, code, and some samples are all you get. With PureMVC, the goal was to go a step further and provide guidance in the use of the framework and a better 'big picture'. The documentation you see on the menu here currently relates to the AS3 implementation in specifically in its examples, but the framework is quite general. And though each port (such as Java or PHP) will certainly have slight unavoidable differences the actors and their roles, responsibilities and collaborations are the same in every implementation. So, for now, Pythoners, PHPers and GWTers, don't be afraid to dive into these documents. Though you might not know ActionScript, it won't get in the way of your getting the really important concepts. As the communities grow around each port, we will hopefully get these documents ported as well. Also note that the API documentation for each port or utility is available on the project's page in the 'Code' section of the site.

PureMVC on the Web

Prudential wanted an intimate but exciting way of communicating with customers, so Downstream created a coffee table with a twist—the Interactive Coffee Table. Visitors can navigate floor plans, see and edit their agenda for the visit, and browse images and info about Prudentials history in a technologically advanced multiuser environment. Downstream's programmers used ActionScript 3 on the Adobe Air runtime, the PureMVC framework to keep the code well structured, and Papervision3D for various 3D effects in the application. • Prudential Interactive Coffee Table • Downstream Design

Ahmed Nuaman has published a well conceived and received AS3/PureMVC tutorial at FlashTuts.com. It's a good place for the learner to get their feet wet, and goes into the difference between using PureMVC with Flex as opposed to Flash or pure AS3. • Understanding the PureMVC Open Source Framework • FlashTuts Website • Ahmed's Website

When Maurish T. decided to learn PureMVC in a week, he was kind enough to keep track of the key documentation, forum posts, and demos that he got the most from. He followed that up with an excellent overview of the framework actors and their responsibilities - complete with simple but instructive examples of every class you implent. |
