Aptana Studio plugin for Adobe® AIRTM 1.0 application development
An integrated development environment for creating Adobe AIRTM (formerly code-named Apollo) applications. Adobe AIR allows developers to leverage their existing web development skills (HTML, JavaScript, Ajax, Flash, and Flex) to build and deploy rich Internet applications (RIA's) to the desktop. Compatible with Aptana Studio 1.1+.
"We are delighted with Aptana Studio's support for Adobe AIR. Ajax developers using Aptana Studio 1.1 and Adobe AIR can now build advanced rich Internet applications that deploy on the desktop and run consistently across operating systems. In addition, Ajax developers will save time building applications on Adobe AIR with Aptana's many productivity features including the AIR application export wizard and advanced Ajax code hinting. Aptana is making it easy to build Ajax-based applications for Adobe AIR." -Rob Christensen, Senior Product Manager of Adobe AIR
