Slide is an application framework for projects built in Flex 2 or 3.

Key features: * Uses familiar design patterns * Robust MVC structure * View state management decoupled from view implementation * Flexible approach to model and controller access, eliminating need for singleton classes. * Separate view presentation from view functionality * Incorporated debugging and development tools

Benefits: * Helps with project planning through visual design to production * Increases the proportion of your codebase that is easily testable * Makes dependencies transparent (appropriate abstraction and decoupling, not unhelpful indirection) * Plays to Flex's strengths, reducing the quantity of code * Encourages convention, but does not depend on it * Simplifies view management
