Deploying Flex using Capistrano

Capistrano is a deployment tool initially created to support the remote installation of Rails applications. One of the assumptions Capistrano makes is that the application (source) can be pulled out of a source code management system such as Subversion. In case of Adobe Flex applications, compiled sources (SWF,HTML,…) need to be deployed to the Web server. So instead of pulling sources from a repository, I needed to push compiled code to the server.
