Adobe Edge Animate: Using Web Standards to Create Interactive Websites (Paperback)

Interactive web animations have become the standard among websites. Whether the goal is to create a simple animated product presentation or a sophisticated, choreographed interactive animation, the requirements for authoring tools are becoming more and more complex.

Until now, Adobe Flash dominated the motion world of the web. But proprietary systems are out and open web standards are in - the current trend steadily moves toward HTML and CSS. This is where Adobe Edge Animate comes in. With Edge, Adobe has created a new tool that allows web designers to create interactive and animated HTML content designed to work with any standard browser.

This book shows users what is possible with Edge. It covers every step of the Edge workflow from creation to publication, including how results are implemented into websites and how they are expanded with JavaScript/jQuery. Author Simon Widjaja discusses the basics of working with the Adobe Edge Animate interface and tools, and reveals countless insider tips and tricks, including smart add-ons and extensions that go beyond the official functional range of the program, such as EdgeCommons with SoundJS, CMS, Parallax, and Logging.

With this book as your guide, you will learn how to expand the possibilities of Adobe Edge Animate.

互動式網頁動畫已成為網站的標準。無論目標是創建簡單的產品介紹動畫還是複雜的互動動畫，製作工具的要求越來越複雜。

迄今為止，Adobe Flash在網頁動畫領域佔據主導地位。但專有系統已經過時，開放的網頁標準才是趨勢 - 目前的趨勢穩步轉向HTML和CSS。這就是Adobe Edge Animate的用武之地。通過Edge，Adobe創建了一個新工具，允許網頁設計師創建與任何標準瀏覽器兼容的互動和動畫HTML內容。

本書展示了使用Edge可以實現什麼。它涵蓋了Edge工作流程的每一個步驟，從創作到發布，包括如何將結果實現到網站中，以及如何通過JavaScript/jQuery進行擴展。作者Simon Widjaja討論了使用Adobe Edge Animate界面和工具的基礎知識，並揭示了無數內部技巧和訣竅，包括超越程序官方功能範圍的智能附加組件和擴展，例如具有SoundJS、CMS、視差和日誌記錄功能的EdgeCommons。

有了本書作為指南，您將學會如何擴展Adobe Edge Animate的可能性。
