The Last Two Months of Flex, A Wrap Up

I have been very satisfied with my experiences using Flex. There were some quirks and intricacies that were difficult and time consuming to overcome but I have yet to learn a language or program that has not presented some surprises. As a freelance web developer I can already see my billing rate climb as I add Flex development to my offerings to clients. This more graphically rich style of application is better suited for the small to medium sized applications I will be developing for a broad array of companies and organizations that all have different needs, but share the desire to keep their professional image. Silverlight will take some of Flash and Flex's market share but that will only encourage the developers at Adobe to create a more full-featured competitive product for the market.
