The idea of ​​Flex-design "e-shop for freeloaders"

Create an interactive e-store template consisting of a pair of files that could be placed on any hosting. The store should be extremely simple for both the user and for the "administrator"



The following functions must be implemented:

• Product catalog with unlimited nesting and display of the number of products in each (sub) category

• Each product has an arbitrary set of characteristics + photo. The details are displayed using templates.

• Search products by various criteria (name / price / ...) on the client

• Making an order, entering the necessary contact information and sending the order form to the e-mail to the user and the store owner through a script located on a separate website

• Setting up and editing the site using the included AIR-application. Allows you to manage the product catalog, the content of user pages, themes and "site" settings



Additional bonuses:

• The ability to add your own HTML pages and customize the appearance using the WYSIWYG editor

• News page using RSS feed from any blog



How it will work:

After creating a product catalog in the attached AIR program and setting up the “site” pages, the user simply uploads files to any server and the store begins to work. Externally, it looks professional, supports the basic functions of the e-store, while not demanding hosting. An existing blog is used to update the site (although there may be troubles related to the lack of a cross-domain if the store and the blog are separated across different domains) and the xml file of settings + directory.

Why it is needed: for me personally this is a practice in AS and Flex. And for the society - promotion of the RIA idea to the masses, popularization of Flex and AIR and of course “Beauty will save the world”



- Some works in this direction have already begun, as the emergence of interesting moments will unsubscribe them in this blog. I also suggest that Flex developers join.
