Note: all of the following resources are intended for Action Script 2.0 (Flash 8) developers. Action Script 3.0 (Flash CS3/CS4) developers, go here instead. FLEX users go go here


Before Getting Started...

[Note: Because our AS2 API is deprecated and documentation and support is limited, we recommend using our AS3 API.]

  • Download and install Adobe Flash CS4 if you have not already (it will support AS 2.0)
  • Download and install the Flash Debug Player if you want runtime error reporting.
  • Sign up for a yourminis account. If you already have an account, sign in now.

Tutorials

Here are some tutorials to help you get started - begin with which ever one best suits your needs:

  • Setup Environment - learn how to setup the yourminis API for AS2
  • Hello World - a very simple Hello World tutorial
  • Advanced - a more advanced tutorial incorporating more of the yourminis API
  • RSS Widget - learn how to make a simple RSS reader widget
