A few weeks ago, one of our Flex QA engineers, Shashwati Keith, built a mobile app in Flex and deployed it to the Android Marketplace. The app is Muni Tracker. Muni Tracker lets you track San Francisco Muni vehicle arrival time predictions on a map updating live every 10 seconds. Since Shashwati built this app, internal builds of Flash Builder can now target iOS devices (iPad, iPhone, etc.). Because Shashwati is super busy getting the upcoming release of Flex 4.5 and Flash Builder ready for the world, I volunteered to take her Flex project and attempt to get the app running on my iOS devices and video the entire conversion. It actually turned out to be almost too easy! Basically, I set up the Apple cert and provisioning profile, made a couple of minor tweaks to the app config XML, and got it to work without touching a single line of Flex code. The 12 minute video is below. The total conversion time from importing the Flex project and demonstrating the app running on my iPad 2 was less than 10 minutes! Without my commentary, I can do it in 6 minutes (1 minutes for import/modifications, 5 minutes for iOS packaging and deploy).
