For many web designers and developers, Firebug is probably one of most vital tools while building and debugging web apps.

FlashFirebug is an extension to Firebug which aims to fill this gap for AS3 Flash files by easing Flash debugging as easy as HTML and JavaScript.

Besides Firebug, it requires Flash Player content debugger 10 or higher and enables us to inspect display list, change properties and see the warnings, errors + traces for any Flash file.

It can also work with multiple Flash files on a web page and display the elements inside the file as a directory tree.

The extension is designed to perform fast and, optionally, it can be disabled to be used only when it is needed.

Grimace is a free Flash-based component for displaying emotions through facial expressions.

It is developed in pure AS3, delivered as a lightweight SWF file & supports 6 emotions: joy, surprise, fear, disgust, sadness, anger (and their combinations).

The component can be integrated into any project using Javascript, Flex, Flash IDE or pure Actionscript.

The configuration of the Grimace is accomplished through external XML-based files, which allow full customization.

Some usage ideas for the component:

• visually displaying emotions in a chat application
• using it as a password-meter (a bad password can be "shocked", good one can be "joy", etc)
• online games (status of a player)

P.S. The component is only free for personal use.

Flash is a highly creative medium & ActionScript 3 is a powerful language.

On the other hand, it is mostly hard to speed up when working with Flash as AS3 can be quite time-consuming & there are things to do (planning & setup of Flash movies) before you can actually get anything done.

This is where HYPE comes in.

HYPE is a creative coding framework built on top of ActionScript 3 which aims to enable Flash developers of every level to creatively play & express themselves.

The framework is extendible as it is possible to write new classes & improve it.

There are lots of examples provided at the HYPE website which are worth checking out.

In order to better understand this resource, let’s describe augmented reality first. From Wikipedia:

Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or indirect view of a physical real-world environment whose elements are merged with (or augmented by) virtual computer-generated imagery – creating a mixed reality

EZFlar is an open source ActionScript library that enables you to create such a media. Or, you can use the online generator.

How it works?

It simply inserts a pre-defined media inside a "pre-defined object" in another media.

There is an online generator provided. You’ll need a webcam & a printer to test it instantly:

• Select the media to be integrated (image, video, sound, URL, etc.)
• Print a special shape provided
• Display the printed sheet while the application records you through your webcam
• It will insert the "selected media" to the place where you hold the sheet.

It may look complicated, however, you can check this video or this one to see it working.
