Overview of this book

With the advent of HTML5 and CSS3, web designers can now create sophisticated animations without the need of additional plugins such as Flash. However, there hasn't been an easy way for creating animations with web standards until now. This book enables even those with little knowledge of HTML or programming web content to freely create a variety of rich compositions involving motion and interactivity.Learning Adobe Edge will quickly get you up and running with this professional authoring software to create highly engaging content which targets HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.

We then move on through the variety of panels and toolsets available, and explore the many options we have when creating motion and interactivity using Edge.The book presents the reasoning behind engaging, standards-based web content and how Edge fills the need for professional tooling in this area. In the book we'll examine content creation and how to achieve fluid animation and advanced transitioning through the Edge timeline.

Summary


In this chapter, we've examined how to use the Actions panel to add interactivity to an Edge composition through element actions and timeline triggers. Edge uses JavaScript as its scripting language through the Edge Runtime APIs due to its adherence to web standards. Those familiar with ActionScript versions 1 or 2 from Flash Professional should feel quite at home, as will anyone coming from another JavaScript-based coding environment.

In the final chapter of this book, we'll have a look at some other resources to help you get the most out of Adobe Edge.
