Hi all -
I'm getting my organization's web mapping life up and running. I understand that Flex is being sunset. What should I be developing in instead?
Thanks all. Probably using the HTML builder for now. I'm interested in the JavaScript option but I wan tto host on AGO not create a separate web server.
Awesome - thanks, all!
If you are starting a new site and have no legacy apps then definitely go with HTML/JavaScript.
JavaScript for sure. Then you can Use REST API via AJAX and hopefully, one day, WebSockets!
Joanna,
It's seems like Esri answered our prayers: the configurable HTML5/JavaScript-based application is on its way (see Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS)!
I would go in the Javascript API direction. It is free and works across a lot of platforms!
Check it out: ArcGIS API for JavaScript

It's just that Flex is free. Geocortex, not so much.
Have you heard any ETA on 10.3? I've heard about the web builder, too, but I don't want to wait! 😃
Flex will be supported for 2 more years. However, I am currently looking into Geocortex as a middleware. When ArcGIS 10.3 is released it will have a web app builder bundled in for you to use. I would wait until SP1 to migrate. Everything moving forward looks like HTML5 and Javascript. That's all I've seen/heard so far.
