Parsley 2 + Spicelib - simple MVC Flex example

The new release of Cairngorm 3 beta was a good news for me but after a quick study about Cairngorm 3 I have found that several of the Cairngorm 3 libraries are implemented as extensions to the Parsley Application Framework

Because I am a very curios guy I have read a little more about Parsley Application Framework and I have to say that Jens Halm made a very good job with this framework. Parsley Framework offers you a lot of flexibility and the framework is easy to extend. Some of the cool features of the framework are :

  • Dependency Injection
  • Messaging ( this is my favorite )
  • Flex Modules support
  • Localization

Parsley Framework is good documented but I have not found a good and simple example of using Parsley. So I decided to write this article and post a simple example that can help you to understand how to create a MVC application using Parsley .

You can see the application down (username: admin, password: admin )

If you have any questions post them here.

    Nice example and it seems better than the other Parsley Hello World’s. But is it possible to tell this example step by step for dummies?

    Hallo,
    thanks for the short example…
    But why you are using Events and not the Messaging System?
    I thought you this is your favour feature!
    I am new to Parsley and try to understand when to use the Messaging System and when to use normal Events…

    ciao

    Is Parsley a Swiz imitation ? I didn’t see nothing better than Swiz

    Hy jpmoraez,

    I have use Swiz and my personal opinion is that Swiz is great but the main difference between Parsley and Swiz is that Parsley is much more mature and have a great, I mean great support a lot of documentation and much more features then Swiz.
