Publishing for Adobe AIR
Adobe® AIR™, a new cross-operating system runtime allows you to leverage local desktop resources and data to deliver
even more personal, engaging experiences. Using the same skills you use to deliver to the Adobe Flash Player, your
content can now reach even more audiences across more devices – web, mobile, and now the desktop.
About Adobe AIR
Adobe® AIR™ is a cross-operating system runtime that allows you to leverage your existing web development skills
(Adobe® Flash® CS3 Professional, Adobe® Flex™, HTML, JavaScript®, Ajax) to build and deploy Rich Internet
Applications (RIAs) to the desktop. AIR enables you to work in familiar environments, to leverage the tools and
approaches you find most comfortable, and by supporting Flash, Flex, HTML, JavaScript, and Ajax, to build the best
possible experience that meets your needs.
Users interact with AIR applications in the same way that they interact with native desktop applications. The runtime
is installed once on the user's computer, and then AIR applications are installed and run just like any other desktop
application.The runtime provides a consistent cross-operating system platform and framework for deploying
applications and therefore eliminates cross-browser testing by ensuring consistent functionality and interactions
across desktops. Instead of developing for a specific operating system, you target the runtime.
AIR dramatically changes how applications can be created, deployed, and experienced. You gain more creative control
and can extend your Flash, Flex, HTML, and Ajax-based applications to the desktop, without learning traditional
desktop development technologies.
