Zinc is a cool Mac OS X app that lets you create, build, and deploy all kinds of stuff like applications, screen savers, games, DVDs, and widgets using the Adobe Flash SWF format.
So basically, Zinc is a handy development environment designed for apps based on the Adobe Flash platform. It works smoothly with Flash and Flash Builder to compile your SWF files into applications for Mac OS X, Linux, or Windows.
You can start your project in Flash or Flash Builder or even open an existing Flash/Flex project. With Zinc, you can easily use standard ActionScript, Components, and other Flash/Flex assets right in your project. Once you're done creating your masterpiece, just export it to a SWF file. Then Zinc can turn it into a standalone application for whatever operating system you need!
The best part? Your application doesn't need plug-ins or runtimes! You can run it straight from a CD, DVD, USB drive, external drive—basically anywhere—even on a virtual machine.
Zinc also allows you to extend ActionScript with over 600 commands and classes specifically for desktop applications using {mdm}Script. You can customize your app however you want! Change the window size, border style, icon—you name it! Plus, you can even update the Application license and description right inside Zinc.
It's important to know that Zinc consists of two main parts: the Zinc Builder (that's the IDE for Mac OS X) and the Zinc Plug-in (these are modules that help compile an SWF into a desktop app). This setup means you can make applications for Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows from either a Mac or PC.
If you're an advanced developer looking to create custom Command Extensions for your Zinc Projector projects, you're in luck! Zinc has a powerful Command SDK just for that.
