I think a programmer is someone who is efficient at writing code; whereas, a developer thinks more in terms of architecting a software solution. I have worked with many ‘programmers’ who were well-familiar with C++, Java, VB.Net, ActionScript, but were utterly clueless on how to go about designing a complex, enterprise-level application or Web site. With my last employer, I found myself in both roles. I was tasked with developing a Flash media player that required some extensive forethought on the architecture and design – long before I ever started coding. I think it was the most complex application I ever had to write. Coming from a Windows background, I can honestly say that it would have crashed-and-burned had I not taken the time to consider how all the parts were going to be managed and work together. I’m sure you’ve had similar experiences. Interesting question.

But my background is mostly from Computer Science so programming is not really a problem for me. I am definitely not a designer. But between developer and programmer, I don't know; is there a difference between them? No problem, it was just that your question was a bit broad and I didn’t know exactly what you wanted to know.

I was just curious if you were a developer or a designer. I haven't met very many Flash developers who have even heard of pureMVC. In my last position, I was building a lot of Flash sites in Gaia. And, I had the opportunity to use pureMVC in a Flex project that I started, but left before it was completed. Anyway, I was just looking to join a developers' community with people whose skills and experience mirrored my own. Hope that doesn't too weird. Sorry.
