Toolkits, Libraries, Reusable Components, Reusable Code
Reusable flash code
There are several kinds of components
- *.swf - Flash (embedd as movie)
- *.fla - Flash source code (i.e. a template with drawings and code)
- *.as - Action Script source code (watch out for the version !!)
- *.swc - Compiled components (like the ones in the built-in components library).
- Indexes
- Free (need more)
- Adobe Exchange beta (various licences, also commercial).
- Flashcomponents (good site, but mostly older Flash)
- Flash-DB (older Flash, i.e. MX)
- Flashkit.com (Good large libary, but older Flash. Too many ads and difficult navigation and sorting.)
- Commercial (I only want to have 5-6, the best at some point and not a long list ...)
- Oh my Flash
- Flash Valley (some free)
- Flashloaded
Code Repositories
- Flash @ AdvanceScripts.com, the Script Hub
- Code Library @ actionscript.org
= Private Collections
- ActionScript Library @ senocular.com
= Where you can add and organize your own code
- Snipplr.com, this allows you to keep an album with your own code... and access the code contributed by others.
- DZone Snippets. Public source code repository. Easily build up your personal collection of code snippets, categorize them with tags / keywords, and share them with the world
