AIR: Develop desktop applications with HTML + Javascript
background
I have developed some gadgets with Winform and WPF intermittently, but I have never been able to do it. I have come into contact with AIR while playing Flex. Recently, I found that you can use HTML + Javascript to develop AIR applications. This article will try it out (Hello, World).
What is AIR?
AIR is essentially a browser (Webkit) that can load static resource files from the local machine and can access local resources with limited access.
Environmental preparation
AIR SDK下载：Adobe AIR SDK。
Note: Remember to set the Path environment variable after unzipping .

HelloWorld.app.xml
1 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 2 <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.7"> 3 <id>happy.html.HelloWorld</id> 4 <versionNumber>0.1</versionNumber> 5 <filename>HelloWorld</filename> 6 <initialWindow> 7 <content>HelloWorld.html</content> 8 <visible>true</visible> 9 <width>400</width> 10 <height>200</height> 11 </initialWindow> 12 </application>
Note: <content>HelloWorld.html</content> specifies the entry page.

HelloWorld.html
1 <html> 2 <head> 3 <title>Hello World</title> 4 <script src="jquery-ui-1.10.3/js/jquery-1.9.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 5 <script src="jquery-ui-1.10.3/js/jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 6 <script src="Javascript/AIRAliases.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 7 <link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery-ui-1.10.3/css/ui-lightness/jquery-ui-1.10.3.custom.css" type="text/css" /> 8 </head> 9 <body> 10 <div id="Accordion"> 11 <h3>中文</h3> 12 <div>你好，世界。</div> 13 <h3>英文</h3> 14 <div>Hello,World!</div> 15 </div> 16 </body> 17 </html> 18 <script type="text/javascript"> 19 $("#Accordion").accordion({ active: 2 }); 20 </script>
这里引用了JQuery UI。
注意：本例中AIRAliases.js可以不用引入，此文件为AIR类库提供了别名机制，让代码更简洁。

Remark
WEB QQ has an AIR version, but I don't know if it's the platform you made yourself? Still using the Adobe platform. Friends who have used AIR can give me some pointers, I would be very grateful.
