AS3 on PureMVC. Round One.

As referenced in the title, this article is about coding Actionscript 3.0 in a Model-View-Controller design pattern, namely the PureMVC way.

Problems don’t exist. Only opportunities for creating solutions.

A few years back, when I started on web design / development, it was a one-man show. I then started working with other developers from time to time.

Hello!


I’m still setting up the blog and learning how Wordpress works — there’s a first time for everything!

This will serve as an extension of my Twitter account. A base where I can publish my thoughts on particular subjects. From trending topics like social media and user interaction, to more boring ones like coding meta-patterns and usability.

If I got your attention, you can always stop by every other week to check what’s new, or follow me on Twitter, as I will certainly link back to any article I’ll post here.

Thanks for stopping by!
