Flash Development on Linux
I’ve known about Eclipse for a LONG time and I even downloaded it once or twice and fiddled with it, though I couldn’t ever get myself to use it as other editors (my favourites are jEdit and Eric) were slimmer and did what I needed, recently I’ve been playing with Actionscript 3 (Flash development) and have come to quite like FlexBuilder 2 which is basically Adobe’s editor built on top of Eclipse and so I’ve been trialiing Eclipse again for my other development (predominantly Python and HTML, actually I haven’t yet looked deeply into eclipse HTML plugins). I’m quite happy with it. Today I finally got around to downloading the Adobe alpha Linux FlexBuilder plugin for Eclipse and have to say I’m rather happy, all my development can now happen within the one IDE and I don’t need to use Windows for the Flash development.
