This page includes sample applications that will help you get started using Adobe® AIR™. These are basic applications built by Adobe engineers to demonstrate capabilities of the runtime. I have read the Adobe AIR SDK License, and by downloading the Sample Applications listed below I agree to the terms of the agreement.
Fresh
Fresh is a skinnable RSS reader built entirely using AJAX running on Adobe AIR. The Fresh reader features offline RSS reading, multiple panels within a single window, tabbed browsing, and basic browser integration. Fresh is based on the YUI-Ext / Ext JS library and RSS Feed Viewer sample by Jack Slocum.
Are you frustrated every time you need to print an online map? MapCache uses Yahoo! Maps Web Services to give you an easy to use, functional map. It demonstrates drag-and-drop to the local file system and makes it simple to find where you need to go.
Maptacular lets you see your personal network in a new way. This Adobe Air based mashup combines Google Maps with Vcards on your local file sytem and also demonstrates blending Adobe Flash with HTML using transparency.
This application uses the Backpack API's from 37signals to keep track of your tasks whether you're offline or online. PeekAgenda shows how an AJAX-based desktop application can work offline to create lists and then synchronize this data using Backpack API's. Note: Prior to running PeekAgenda, you will need to obtain a Backpack API key (also known as a "token"). First, sign-up for a free Backpack account. After logging into your Backpack account, click on "Account" link. At the bottom of page, click on the "Show the API key" link. Copy this API Key, launch PeekAgenda and paste the key into the token field of PeekAgenda's token field.
Online storage has never been so easy. Not only can you drag and drop files between Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) storage services and your local system, you can also copy and paste from the clipboard.
Scout gives web developers the ability to look inside a web page and see what is really going on beneath the covers. This app takes advantage of the HTML capabilities of Adobe AIR to inspect a page as it's rendered on the client.
Screenplay allows you to draw directly on your desktop using multiple transparent windows and a variety of preset tools. If you want to be really creative, it lets you configure your own drawing tools to highlight specific items currently on the desktop.
Signet gives you the ability to take your del.icio.us bookmarks to the desktop. Built entirely in HTML and JavaScript, Signet uses the YUI-Ext / Ext JS library by Jack Slocum.
