Web Tier Compiler For Flex

Adobe is releasing a new web tier compiler for Flex on Adobe labs. This allows you to simply copy the Flex files into a directory visible to your server and your app will be compiled automatically when you request the main application file using your web browser. The resulting model feels very similar to working with ASP, JSP, PHP, or CF.
It is available for both Apache and IIS, and runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
All that’s needed is a Java Runtime Environmnet (JRE). This has NOTHING to do with Flex Data Services and FDS applications will not run with it. It does NOT require J2EE. It’s just a simple piece of software you can deploy to make Flex development more like standard web development. Enjoy!
