Question

In which programming languages can we develop applications for adobe air ? java ?

Answer 1

ActionScript http://www.adobe.com/devnet/actionscript/

Answer 2

You can use HTML & AJAX (HTML is a markup language and AJAX utilises JavaScript) or you can use ActionScript from within Adobe Flash and Adobe Flex.

Adobe AIR Developer Centre

Answer 3

Air is in fact a "non-web web browser". IOW, the runtime has WebKit (HTML+SVG+JavaScript) + Flash (ActionScript 3 + Flex library); but instead of an URL field to type an address, it opens a downloaded package.

So, to answer your question:

• you can write as a modern Ajax-Heavy web app; with the advantage of not having to support a variety of browsers.

• you can write Flash applications, either with or without Flex; which is a nice GUI library.
