Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:
⭐I have tried avoiding books “for dummies” for a long time but when I saw “Adobe AIR for Dummies” I decided to read it. While reading I have discovered that this book is a very valuable resource for developers who need a well organized and structured book covering AIR in practice. This book serves as friendly, no-nonsense guide to designing and developing Adobe AIR applications. There is only one thing I do not like about this book. I am a Flash/Flex developer and this book is written for JavaScript/HTML developers. I do not mind JavaScript but it should be visualized somehow on the book cover or in the title that this book reveals AIR from JavaScript developer’s perpective. Anyway, to be precise, there are a few words dedicated to Flash/Flex developers, too. Chapter 3 is about Building AIR with Flex Builder and Flash. If you are a JavaScript/HTML developer and new to AIR, this book is what you may need. If you are a Flash/Flex developer, you should consider buying another book, more Flash or Flex developer oriented.
