An article by Nokia Devs    1 Comment

Nokia Devs launches its first contest for all Flash and Flash Lite developers: you can win two full licenses for FDT 3.5 Pure, worth $129, with just a tweet or joining our Facebook page! The same license will also allow you to fully use FDT 4 beta versions.

We asked Bruno Fonzi, from the Powerflasher team, some questions about FDT:

What is FDT?

FDT is the most powerful Flash/Flex development environment for Actionscript 2, 3 and MXML. The only editor built from the ground-up to support the needs of ActionScript developers, built by Flash developers for Flash developers. With highly efficient and time-saving features, FDT enhances your workflow while increasing your productivity.

FDT enables you to focus on what you love best: coding. It offers a non-intrusive, intuitive way to help you write, debug, test, and refactor your code. FDT is not about making rules. Since you are in complete control it goes with your flow. FDT gives freedom and creativity while coding. Enable FDT to do the uninteresting, tedious and repetitive work. This is our meaning of pure coding comfort.

Why should Flash Lite devlopers use FDT?

As some versions of FlashLite still supports AS2, FDT 3.5 users can take full advantage of the FDT coding environment. Being an Eclipse-based IDE, developers will be able to use all the powerful Eclipse features, together with new and specific features built for Flash and Flash Lite development. Also, FDT allows to develop Flash Lite applications without the need to use any other commercial tool (e.g.: Flash Professional), by allowing you to use free solutions as MTASC.

Where can we get more information about FDT?
