At 360Flex San Jose 2008, I gave a session titled Polishing Components for the Unwashed Masses. In my talk, I covered all the important details around releasing a custom component to the community. Having built a few open source components on my own, and being a former member of the development team behind Yahoo! Astra, I’ve spent a lot of time focusing on how to create quality supplementary material to include along with the source code and the SWC. The four main topics were writing documentation, creating examples, making your components extensible, and encouraging a community.
