Adobe Max: Day 2: Thermo

Thermo is amazing! It will bridge the gap between designers and developers, allowing developers to get in the game at an earlier stage; allow customers to feel the application and not just see it in planning phase... Prototyping just upgraded to a whole new meaning. The customer doesn't know what he wants until he sees it; now this applies to RIAs as well, how nice is that?! I really can't wait to start using it.
You read about it on the blogs, but there's nothing like seeing it in action ... even on early stages, I can already visualize us being an early adopted and using it on every RIA project.

Without getting too deep into the demo, Thermo allows to create a new RIA project, spits out Flex code... allow designers to use familiar tools such as layers ... or you can import a PSD, separate all assets, convert graphics into controls, group data into arrays for dummy data.... it's amazing ...

Rob, your presentation was one that I got much from. I was hoping however that you'd talk more about how you use Jquery.

Does it support relative font sizing and ems? I have a real issue with Flex and Flash and their lack of support for accessablility. If the California lawsuit against Target succeeds, Adobe will have to support these options.
