Adobe Flex Builder 3 Standard software is a productive Eclipse based development tool for creating rich Internet applications for Adobe Flash Player or Adobe AIR, enabling intelligent coding, interactive step-through debugging, and visual layout and design of the user interface.

Flex is a free, open source framework for building highly interactive, expressive web applications that deploy consistently on all major browsers, desktops and operating systems. It provides a modern, standards-based language and programming model that supports common design patterns. MXML, a declarative XML-based language, is used to describe UI layout and behaviors, and ActionScript 3, a powerful OO programming language is used to create client logic. Flex also includes a rich component library with over 100 proven, extensible UI components for creating RIAs, as well as an interactive Flex application debugger.

Rich Internet applications created with Flex can run in the browser using the ubiquitous Adobe Flash¨ Player software or on the desktop on Adobe AIR. This enables Flex applications to run consistently across all major browsers and across operating systems on the desktop. And using Adobe AIR, the cross-operating system runtime, Flex applications can now access local data and system resources on the desktop.

You can accelerate application development with Adobe Flex Builder 3, a highly productive, Eclipseª based development environment, and Adobe Live Cycle Data Services ES, a set of advanced data services that can be used in Flex development. Both of these products are available for purchase.
