The SitePen team announced the release of an exciting new open source new project called the Dojo Extensions for Adobe AIR. Adobe and SitePen worked together to define a set of useful API’s for common desktop functionality using Dojo-like constructors. For example, with this library, you can easily playback video and easily manage your windows all from HTML and JavaScript. The library is designed from the ground up to play well with the Dojo Toolkit as well. There is an excellent screencast recording by Peter Higgins of SitePen that introduces the library using a sample application.

The project is hosted on Google Code and the source code is available. A quickstart page and sample application is available for those interested in diving in. This is project is a work in progress, but provides a significant amount of functionality in its first release.

Some of the API’s includes:

  • dair.AIR
  • dair.Console
  • dair.Window
  • dair.Application
  • dair.fx
  • dair.Sound
  • dair.Video
  • dair.Icon
  • dair.File

Congratulations to the SitePen on the release!

    That’s a great demo of what dAIR can do. Dojo has come a long way since I started using it in 0.4.3 :) Is there any chance of getting a copy of the demo used to show case dAIR in the screencast?
