Introduction to FlexJS

" summary

FlexJS compiles MXML + ActionScript 3 into runnable HTML/JS using the FalconJX transpiler, aiming to let apps run in browsers, PhoneGap/Cordova and CEF without Flash. The demo shows a simple MXML app compiled for Flash then rebuilt for Chrome with live debugging, illustrates beads for behaviors (add/remove click tracker, layout beads) to reduce payload and enable composition, and swaps component sets (basic, Express, MDL, createjs) to change look and behavior. Builds mostly work though live demo glitches appear.
