If you’re thinking of using Cairngorm in your Flex projects and would like a little help in getting started, David Tucker has prepared a great series of beginner tutorials on the subject.

In five lessons, Tucker leads the student from setting up the ModelLocator, Events, Commands and Controller classes, to using Business Delegates and Value Objects in the Service-to-Worker design pattern, finally ending with Best Practices. Each tutorial begins with some theory and explanations, then quickly segues to a hands-on video tutorial which demonstrates in great detail how all this is put together.

Apart from being unsuccessful in getting Coldfusion 8 to run on Leopard, which is a whole other issue completely (hello, Adobe?), these tutorials proved to be immensely helpful in getting me acquainted with the Cairngorm framework.
