RIAWAVE – a lightweight approach for flex 2 development

＊What is Riawave?

Riawave is a lightweight, rapid development approach specially designed for Flex 2, which takes many advantages of the Flex2’s new features, like data binding, event model, mxml component and view states, this ensures the quick development process and flexibility of the application.

Riawave is not a framework, but more like a combination of design-patterns and best-practices, it’s core spirit is Component-Based Design(CBD) and Decoupling, the goal is to speed up the development process and in the same time keep the maintainability and flexibility of the application for possible re-factoring or scaling in the future.

One of the advantage of Riawave is “easy to learn and easy of use”, almost every developer can learn it within a very short period of time( say 10 minutes ?) and never forget, more of, once you learned the core spirit of the approach, you can change it according to your project nature anytime without any problem.
