Adobe ActionScript is the programming language of the Adobe Flash Platform. Originally developed as a way for developers to program interactivity, ActionScript enables efficient programming of Flash Platform applications for everything from simple animations to complex, data-rich, interactive interfaces.
ActionScript in detail |
First introduced in Flash Player 9, ActionScript 3 is an object-oriented programming (OOP) language based on ECMAScript—the same standard that is the basis for JavaScript—and provides incredible gains in runtime performance and developer productivity. ActionScript 2, the version of ActionScript used in Flash Player 8 and earlier, continues to be supported in Flash Player 9 and Flash Player 10.
ActionScript 3 makes programming significantly easier than in previous versions. By repackaging commonly used classes and objects as easily accessible APIs, ActionScript 3 provides faster, more direct access to the functionality you need for your applications.
Whether you use Adobe Flash Professional CS5 or Flash CS4, these resources will help you get started with ActionScript 3.
Get started with ActionScript 3 by learning programming fundamentals, understanding ActionScript language and syntax, and exploring object-oriented programming in ActionScript by reading this resource from the documentation team.
Research the ActionScript language elements, core libraries, and component packages and classes for the tools, runtimes, services and servers in the Flash Platform. This reference combines the information about the ActionScript language elements and libraries for Adobe products and runtimes.
