Visually design and preview user interface 
layout, appearance, and behavior using a  
rich library of built-in components. Create  
or extend those components easily.
Interactive data visualization

analysis by simply dragging and dropping

using the Flex Charting library.

native support for Adobe AIR

skills and codebase as your RIAs with  
new desktop components and integrated 
Adobe AIR development tools.
powerful testing tools
Use memory and performance profilers to 
investigate memory use and analyze where 
applications are using resources. Automated 
functional testing support, now included in 
Flex Builder Professional, enables regression 
testing.
Advanced data services
Invoke web services or request XML data via 
HTTP using a rich, built-in library of data 
access services. Use open-source BlazeDS  
to easily connect applications to back-end 
services, leveraging Remoting and AMF, a 
binary, high-performance HTTP-based data 
transport. You can also add real-time data 
push and pub/sub messaging.
Open-source framework
Beginning with the Adobe Flex 3, the  
entire Flex framework is now available as  
an open-source project. Flex Remoting  
and Flex Messaging are also available as  
open source in BlazeDS.
