Question

ActionScript 3.0 API Reference Archive?

Do any of you feel it's likely or even possible that the ActionScript 3.0 API Reference will ever go offline or cease being publically available permanently?

Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3) API Reference

If so, do we have any archived alternatives or ways that we could back up the API Reference in the event that does happen?

I ask this because I still use Actionscript within Adobe Animate for my animated videos in the same way that After Effects users use JavaScript to automate their animations. And I'm unaware of any other means of viewing the API reference should it go offline for any reason. 

Thank you for any input or thoughts on this matter.

Hi.

 

This is the latest official docs from Harman (that now is responsible for AIR):

https://airsdk.dev/reference

 

The documentation from Adobe only includes APIs for Flash/AIR up to 32, but the newer APIs for AIR 33-50 is in the link above.

 

Regards,

JC

Thanks! I think the Download section of that GitHub Page you shared fits what I'm looking for. 🙂
