Adobe AIR is a cross-operating system runtime that enables developers to package the same code into native apps for iPhone, iPad, Kindle Fire, Nook Tablet, and other Android devices, reaching the mobile app stores for over 500 million devices.
It allows developers to use their existing web development skills in HTML, AJAX, Flash, and Flex to build and deploy rich Internet apps to the desktop.
Once installed Adobe AIR Applications complement browser-based web applications by providing additional reach and capabilities.
The app offers an exciting new way to engage customers with innovative, branded desktop applications, without requiring changes to existing technology, people, or processes.
Adobe AIR empowers businesses to create branded, desktop-based rich internet applications (RIAs) that foster deeper customer connections. By enabling content to seamlessly transition between browsers, standalone applications, and native operating systems, AIR facilitates consistent and engaging experiences across various digital touchpoints. This flexibility allows businesses to reach users on their preferred devices, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Since the Adobe runtimes share a common codebase, developers can reuse code to deploy game console quality 2D and 3D games, rich media applications with premium high-definition video, and scalable date-driven applications through Adobe AIR.
