Adobe AIR

Adobe AIR is a platform that allows developers to create and run cross-platform desktop and mobile applications using web technologies like HTML, JavaScript, and Flash. It enables these apps to operate outside web browsers, with features similar to traditional software programs, such as access to hardware and local files. This means developers can build once and deploy across Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS devices, providing a consistent user experience. Adobe AIR is often used for creating multimedia-rich applications, games, and tools that require advanced features not easily achieved with standard web browsers.
