Adobe AIR Used For Documentation

I was wondering how long it would be before someone did this.

Ext JS have released the documentation for the latest version (Ext JS 2.1) of their JavaScript library as an Adobe AIR download.

This makes a lot of sense and illustrates some of the great strengths of AIR.

All of the Ext JS documentation is already available online, created using HTML and the Ext JS library, so packaging this up an an AIR application wouldn’t have taken much effort. People tend to like working with documents offline so it adds a new advantage for Ext JS over other libraries. But unlike other more traditional means of distributing documentation, this is automatically updateable.

The other key advantage is that the documentation very closely replicates the documentation on Ext JS’s web site so you can happily choose whichever way is most convenient to you at any given time.
