Article Published: Developing with Flex 4, Django, Python, and PyAMF

Recently, Adobe published my article on their ADC site. The article is about Flex 4 and Django. I don't think there are enough Django/Python topics out there, especially for Flex/Flash developers. I hope you guys enjoy the read. If you have any questions please let me know.

Latest Project Release: Club Monaco's Culture Club

We recently launched Club Monaco's blog site. It was an interesting development because we utilized html5 for the functional execution. The tiling algorithm was the highlight of the development. I anticipate more interesting things like this - coming out of our office.

We at Chandelier Creative developed, designed and curated the entire project. It was great experience for all of us. The duality of intuitive design and great content is the prominent success of this project.

Latest Project Release: CopyStack (Desktop Application)

My latest project release is a desktop application. This tool helps you copy more than one item into your system clipboard. It's in alpha, so please send long bug reports and feature requests.

CopyStack provides the ability to stash a list of copied items from the system clipboard. This utility app saves a list of items that were saved by you by applying regular copy functionality. In this alpha release, you are limited to 5 clipboard items. It is a handy tool for multiple copying and single pasting. To copy an item to your clipboard within any application you can press command+c or right-click your mouse and click “copy”. Copy Stack will pull your recent copy and stash it into a buffer. When you’re ready to paste an item from your stack, apply the shortcut key shift+alt and the number of the stash item you want to paste. Please be aware this is a pre-alpha app. It is a rough draft of what is to come. Send you feedback to anthony.cintron at gmail.com. I would love to hear your thoughts and improve this neat utility.

Lates Project Release: Z2wear.com

Launched mini e-commerce site for Washington D.C. based Z^2 Wear Clothing. One of the most exciting aspects of doing this project was having an opportunity to design again. These days as a RIA Developer, I spend most of my time programming and solving theoretical problems. It was refreshing when I was asked to design Z2wear.com. At first I wasn't really interested in designing, but some how I was inspired by the funky clothes.

Another great opportunity was having the ability to use Ruby's light-weight web development library Sinatra. It was quite easy to learn the language and fast to get up and running. The site also uses jQuery and CSS for its interaction and styling. As for the data, it's all stored via SQlite. Checkout the site, let me know what you think. It was fun to make!

Project: Amtraktoparks.com

I lead the technical development for Amtraktoparks.com. This was an amazing project to work on. We used Python/Django for the Content Management System; Flex 4.0 for the front-end development; pyAMF for the data communication; Adobe Catalyst and Flash CS4 for the animations and component skinning.
