Video of Lee Brimelow’s session from AIR Camp Denver. Lee does a fantastic job of placing Adobe Air in the crowded field of Flash, Flex, Microsoft’s Silverlight and desktop apps. He demos several apps showing the capabilities of AIR apps including custom chrome and most importantly, the impressive speed of AIR apps running on the desktop, including several that use the Papervision3D library. He also shows how to create AIR apps using the excellent AIR Panel developed by the folks at gskinner.com (Note: Adobe now has an update for creating AIR apps from Flash CS3).
AIR opens a whole new discussion about best practices on developing desktop apps integrating ActionScript, HTML, Javascript and PDF and how to integrate design patterns that work seamlessly across multiple development frameworks.
