Apache Flex vs. CLion

Apache Flex is an open-source SDK used to make rich Internet applications. It's developed with Action Script and MXML and works particularly well with Android and iOS ecosystems. Any flash-based application framework, such as Eclipse or the Flash above Builder, can be used to implement this. Free is best for mobile app developers, but suppose you have concerns, and consider Apache Flex's development team welcomes any questions via email.

It's a great fit if you’re looking for a user-friendly C++ IDE; comfortable with using Vim; looking for a fast, intuitive UI; or teaching your students C/C++. It wouldn’t be a good fit if you’re more comfortable with command-line based IDEs or planning to code in multiple languages, as it only supports C and C++.

• Runs on flash (at the time this was handy, not so much now. hah).
• Good support from the company.
• Ability to run offline.

• It's heavy as it needs to load the Flash plugin first before rendering anything to the user.
• Not future ready as there is no support for mobile and tablet platforms.

• JetBrains, the company that created and maintains CLion, is located primarily in Russia. While that doesn't concern me it does create worries for some people.
• No real cons. The product is great and the support is equally excellent.

It has the features that I need for my coding

CLion does everything I ask it to do. For me, Unreal Engine 4 compatibility was essential and Epic Game and JetBrains delivered a solid alternative to spending a huge amount of money on the "standard" IDE for game development on Windows. The user interface is sharp and modern without all of the silly frills many software suites now employ. It integrates well with source control systems we use and also works well, as expected, with other JetBrains development tools and assistants.

I am giving it a 9 out of 10 because I did not even need official support from the CLion team but rather, every time I came across a problem, I have been able to solve it within the community itself. This is so precious that you don't even need the help of the program's development/support team. There's a huge community of users that backs you up.

Apache Flex is a modern, standards-based programming language that supports common design patterns. It's an open-source SDK used to make rich Internet applications that work on different browsers and platforms. Any flash-based application framework, such as Eclipse or the Flash above Builder, can be used to implement this. So far, in comparison, it's much more crucial, especially for people working in fields like mobile development.

First thing it has better UI. When it comes to usability CLion is the best

• Positive: Easy to learn if you already knew AS.
• Negative: Too heavy on flash knowledge (I know it's contradictory, but it was a plus & a minus).
• ROI was great since it saves time on multiple devices compiling.

• CLion helped us to speed up our development.
• Version control support reduced many problems like merge conflicts.
