FlashDevelop

From Chumby Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

FlashDevelop is a .NET open source script editor designed mostly for Actionscript 2/3 development. FlashDevelop is very quick to setup and easy to use as an external editor for the Flash IDE or as a complete open source development environment.

FlashDevelop can be used to create SWF files that can be run as a widget on your Chumby.

FlashDevelop runs in the MS Windows environment. If you are a follower of the Linux path, then you will find Flash_on_Linux_Using_Ming more to your liking.
