Parsley is an application framework for Flex/Flash/AIR applications written in AS3.

Spicelib is a suite of independent AS3 libraries that Parsley builds upon, but that can also be used separately.

Parsley features:

• Flexible IOC Container: Supports configuration with AS3 Metadata, MXML, XML files, ActionScript
• Dependency Injection: Injection by type or id - for constructors, methods or properties
• Decoupled Bindings: Bindings where source and target are fully decoupled, based on a publish/subscribe mechanism
• Messaging Framework: Fully decoupled senders and receivers, mapping by type and not string identifiers
• Managed Commands: Execute commands or sequences of commands or map them to messages, automatically added to the container only for the time they execute
• Dynamic View Wiring: Easily wire Flex components to objects declared in the container
• Advanced Modularity: Apply separate configuration and communication spaces for each tab, window, popup or Flex Module
• Object Lifecycle: Asynchronously initializing objects, object lifecycle observers
• Localization: Integrates with Flex ResourceManager for Flex Applications, contains its own Localization Framework for Flash Applications
• Extensibility: Easily create your own configuration tags, a single implementation can be used as AS3 Metadata, MXML or XML tag
• And much more...

Spicelib features:

• Command Framework: Abstraction for asynchronous operations and sequential or parallel execution
• XML-Mapper: Flexible architecture for mapping from XML to AS3 classes - in both directions
• Reflection API: A clean object-oriented API built around the describeType XML output
• Logging: Logging Framework for Flash Applications
