The idea behind XIMPEL
XIMPEL aims to be a platform for multimedia developers of all skill levels. This is realized by using a component based structure. The beginning developer can use the default XIMPEL player component and will only have to edit the XML based playlist to create their own interactive video application. The advanced developer has a general understanding of Flex and Actionscript 3 and can use this knowledge to extended the XIMPEL framework and components to create their own application.
