What is AIR? (Adobe Integrated Runtime)

Consist of a runtime that acts as a layer between your

desktop app and the OS. This is what makes your AIR apps

portable across platforms

•

AIR uses an HTML rendering engine from http://webkit.org

included in many browsers

AIR reuses the Flex framework and adds additional classes to

access the local file system, clipboard, and a local SQLlite

database

Supports creating non-standard Window classes, like circular

windows or transparent square windows

All AIR apps are signed by the developer using certificates

-based security technology

Create native Windows, Mac OSX and Linux GTK(soon)

desktop apps
