                Model-Glue: Flex brings implicit invocation, Model-View-Controller design, and cleaner, less repetitive integration with backend services to Flex 2.0 and AIR applications.
        </p>
        <p>
                It shuns repetitive, boilerplate code in favor of helper classes and expressive APIs.

        <h2>Model-Glue is:</h2>
        
        <ol>
        <li>Easy to understand.  <p>UI components and consumers dispatch events.  Controllers listen for events and take action.</p></li>

        <li>Streamlined.  <p>You'll write less code without sacrificing flexibility.</p></li>
        
        <li>Adaptable.  <p>You can code fast and loose, catching errors at runtime, or strict and controlling, catching errors when compiling.</p></li>
        
        <li>Strong but Simple.  <p>Model-Glue is based on Model View Controller and Implicit Invocation - but not at all complicated.</p></li>
        
        <li>Open.  <p>All code is released under the Apache Software License 2.0, meaning that it's free to download, use, and alter.</p></li>
