Intro
| Illumination Software Creator allows anyone to create their own software applications… without writing a single line of “code”.
The idea is simple: Arrange colorful building blocks of functionality however you like to create your own, unique, piece of software. No reading large computer programming books. No steep learning curve. |
 |
|
With full support for Windows, Linux and MacOS X, Illumination Software Creator allows you to work wherever you like. We won’t judge.
And, once you’ve created your new piece of softare, you can (with a single click) build and run that new application on Windows, Linux or MacOS X desktops, Android devices, Nokia Internet Tablets (such as the N900)… and even as Flash powered rich websites. Warning! Nerd information ahead! Illumination even gives you the full Adobe Flex, Android Java and Python source code to the projects you create. Making it a great way to prototype new projects, or learn new languages. |

Requirements
| Python | Flex | |||
 |
Simply run the following installers, in order. | All you need to do
is download the latest version of the Adobe
Flex SDK.
Or, even better, download and install Flash Builder (there is a free trial version available). Installing Flash Builder will assist in making sure your computer meets all the minimum requirements for the Adobe Flex SDK. Once you've done that, run Illumination and open the Preferences window (under the Edit menu). From there you can locate where you have installed the Flex SDK.
