Open Source ActionScript Frameworks

Apache Flex SDK is the open-source software development kit maintained by the Apache Software Foundation for building applications using Adobe’s Flex framework—primarily targeting Flash runtime and AIR for rich internet applications. The Apache Flex SDK defaults to using the Adobe Flash Player 11.1. The SDK can be used with Flash Player versions 10.2 and up. The Apache Flex SDK uses third-party code that will be downloaded as part of the build. In addition, you can choose to download optional third-party code if you would like to take advantage of the features offered, and you agree to the license terms.

The Virtual Commons (http://commons.asu.edu) is an open software initiative devoted to computational experiments on collective action and resource governance and funded by Arizona State University's Center for Behavior, Institutions, and the Environment (http://cbie.asu.edu). NOTE: we've moved our development to GitHub at https://github.com/virtualcommons - please look for the latest versions there.

Flixel Power Tools is a plug-in suite for the Flixel engine (version 2.5+) that adds many auxiliary utilities, effects, and helper components to aid in developing 2D games with AS3. It includes visual effects, control utilities, math/utility extensions, UI enhancements, and more. It’s designed to be dropped into a Flixel project to give you extra tools beyond the core engine. The Flixel Power Tools come with a comprehensive Test Suite. Use it to visually see the tools in action, and then learn from the source code and comments within. Documentation is also provided for the classes. AS3 IDEs such as FlashDevelop will provide context-sensitive help for all classes and functions in the Flixel Power Tools.
