  • Introducing the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework

    UcompOS Portal SampleThe UcompOS Rich Experience Framework lets you build Rich Portal Applications that target the web browser as well as the desktop.

    Using an SDK, developers can build UcompOS Applications that run inside or alongside the UcompOS Portal.

    UcompOS Applications can be authored in HTML/JavaScript, Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex/Flash Builder, and can even run on the desktop targeting the Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR).

    This blog is dedicated to helping developers interested in building Rich Portal Applications with the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework get started and unleash the full power of the framework to build highly engaging and interactive user experiences.

    Edward Mansouri is the developer of the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework. He came up with the idea for the project in early 2009 and spent the remainder of the year building it and testing it. He is in the process of building an enterprise level e-learning application, Educator 2, entirely on top of the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework.

    Says Mansouri, "My philosophy is that while the framework doesn't make the application great, the application can only be as strong as the framework it's built upon."

    To get the blog started off on the right foot, he has debuted this site with over an hour of Video Tutorials that should provide some important initial background on the mechanics of the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework.

    There are also a number of other resources in place including ActionScript 3 and JavaScript API documentation for the UcompOS SDK, a Wiki, and an interactive Forum.

    He intend to update the site at least weekly and introduce a continuous stream of new tutorials and other helpful resources with the intention of showing not only how powerful and effective the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework is, but also how fast it is being evolved.

    To get started, we recommend you spend a little bit of time reviewing some of the Video Tutorials we have put in place that walk you through the most basic mechanics of the UcompOS Rich Experience Framework. Then use the UcompOS Forum to bring forward questions, ideas, and insight. If you do start developing, please let us know of any Bugs you find.
