Gaia Framework For Adobe Flash: Revolutionize Your Workflow
Gaia is an open-source front-end Flash Framework for AS3 and AS2 designed to dramatically reduce development time. Gaia provides solutions to the challenges and repeated tasks we all face with front-end Flash site development, such as navigation, transitions, preloading, asset management, site structure, deep linking and SEO.
Gaia's revolutionary scaffolding engine generates all your Flash files and classes for you and gets you up and running with a fully functional site in less than 10 minutes without writing a single line of Actionscript! This presentation demonstrates Gaia’s pragmatic and agile approach to Flash development, and gets your feet wet with real world examples of Gaia in action.
Since its release in June 2007, Gaia has quickly become the most popular front-end Flash framework in the industry and has been adopted worldwide by top digital agencies and has been universally praised by the industry's top experts.
