How to write Flash Action Scripts in Linux machine?

I want to know how to develop flash applications in Linux?

Is it possible, then which are the Applications?

Solution

  • You have several options for compiling Flash applications:

    1. Flex SDK, available for free from Adobe's site.
    2. Haxe, an Actionscript-like language that can compile to SWF (as well as JavaScript and PHP).
    3. MTASC, a compiler for Actionscript 2

    For editors and IDEs, you have some options too:

    1. Flex Builder beta for Linux -- based on Eclipse
    2. Your favorite code editor. Just compile from the command line

    The OSFlash Projects page has a list of more compilers, Eclipse plugins, and editors you can check out.
