Nice one!

To be clear though, no Flash/ActionScript is required to learn/use Apollo. In fact, I've written a number of Apollo applications using nothing but good old HTML/CSS/JavaScript. An example is the file upload utility posted at the following URL. Also, one of the sample applications, Fresh, is an RSS aggregator built on the Ext framework (i.e. HTML/CSS/JavaScript). File Upload http://blog.kevinhoyt.org/2007/05/21/file-upload-with-apollo-and-javascript/ Fresh http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Apollo:Applications:Samples Ext http://www.extjs.com/ To answer your question then, if you're an UltraDev-era developer, then you should feel free much at home with Apollo. The only difference being that your JavaScript now has a host of additional classes (i.e. File, NativeWindow, etc.). Hope this helps, Kevin What can I say, Apollo is in alpha right now, so there had better be something more/better around the corner (smile).

Out of interest, what's the learning curve on Apollo (for UltraDev-era users)...? Does anyone know any flash-gurus in Malaysia that aren't afraid of a little bit of actionscripting...?

By the way Kevin, this is our first time into this blog and we have immediately added it to our RSS feed - nice job all round - well done!

I suggested this type of application in a discussion about possible use cases for Apollo. It's cool to see it being implemented. That is pretty sweet.
