Breaking Out of the Web Browser with Adobe AIR Review

| January 17, 2009 | 0 Comments

With the new Adobe AIR technology, Flash and Flex developers are able to extend their applications and skills to cover not only the web but also the desktop using Adobe AIR technology. The AIT technology enables developers to leverage the advantages of Rich Internet Applications (RIA) and the ability to remotely connect with the server side technologies.

The Breaking Out of the web browser with Adobe AIT book for Jeff Tapper and Michael Labriola gives you the best practice to you use Adobe AIR with the real world examples that lets you learn effective skills needed in the real life projects.

Each chapter in the book covers specific skill in using Adobe AIR application. For example the first chapter starts by telling you how to build your AIR application and the second chapter covers how to work with the Time Tracker Application.

I find this book useful in covering Adobe AIR in the real world if you prefer to learn by example instead of tough information.
