One thing worth noting is that FlashDevelop doesn’t provide the ability to draw things visually, like the Flash authoring tool. To pick up coding, though, it should work well.

But didn’t find the time to fully explore it.

A couple of years have passed and i’m itchin’ to get back into codin’. Do you reckon it possible to use a book like ‘Learning AS 3.0’ with FlashDevelop to learn AS 3.0 for free?

You really summed up why this book is a must buy for any beginner/intermediate Flash developer. This is coming from someone with over 8 years of Flash programming background. Also been a big fan of your blog for some time, hope you are enjoying your new job at ESRIA.

I’m an experienced AS3 Flex developer, and I purchased this book a few weeks ago because one subsection addressed a specific problem I was curious about, but I was also pleased to see that it covered many topics that other supposedly advanced books hadn’t even touched, or only touched upon lightly. Its a great reference.
