Adobe starts their “Create the Web” tour, which is coming to the UK as well!
Remember, next week in London as I mentioned here a few weeks ago.
But wait, there’s more. Adobe promised to build the best tools for the web, the best HTML5 tools and they have just announced a few new things.
Adobe today unveiled an innovative set of tools and services to help designers and developers more easily create beautiful websites, digital content and mobile apps using the latest Web technologies, including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript.
Adobe introduced Edge Tools & Services and announced immediate availability of Adobe Edge Animate 1.0, Adobe Edge Inspect 1.0 (formerly codenamed “Shadow”), Adobe PhoneGap Build 1.0, Adobe Edge Web Fonts and a preview of Adobe Edge Code. Adobe also demonstrated a sneak peek of Adobe Edge Reflow in anticipation of a preview release expected by the end of the year.
Adobe also announced that Edge Animate will be made available for free in order to encourage Web designers to create using the interactive capabilities of the modern Web (pricing for Edge Animate will be $499).
Here’s what Edge Tools and Services include:
- Edge Animate – A motion and interaction design tool that allows users to bring animated content to the Web using HTML, JavaScript and CSS.
