Be sure to check out the series of articles on the Flex DevNet – Developing Flex RIA’s with Cairngorm Microarchitecture written by Steven Webster of Adobe Consulting (formerly iteration::two).

This series of 6 articles are focussed around Cairngorm 0.99 and Flex 1.5, but the same principles can be applied when using Flex 2 and the new Cairngorm 2.0 Alpha release. Using a framework such as Cairngorm really keeps your code disciplined, allows for reusability, ease of architecture/design/planning, and a clean implementation of MVC. It gives you a direction to start heading when developing an application using Adobe Flex. Of course larger scale applications can be written without Cairngorm, but if you’re familiar with MVC then Cairngorm provides a great starting ground with a fantastic direction to follow.

Keep an eye out for a subsequent realease of articles that will cover Cairngorm with Flex 2. Nice work Steven.
