I don't see how that makes any difference. When you write CF and HTML applications using, say, jQuery, you have a bunch of files that you create. Some are CF files that generate HTML. Others are JavaScript files. Still others are CSS files. You can create them all in one editor, or in separate editors. When you write Flex applications with a CF backend, you also have a bunch of files you create. Some are CF files that generate XML or some other consumable format (typically, you don't even have to worry about the format thanks to the data options in Flash Builder). Others are SWF files. You can create them all in one editor, or in separate editors. > Can I just build HTML5/CSS3/jQuery/SQL/CF apps and then > just "convert" them to AIR applications without programming > FLEX? AIR is a runtime library that supports two types of applications: Flex/AS3 and HTML/JS. But the key thing is, they're desktop applications instead of web applications. So, you could use CF services from your desktop application, but you couldn't take your existing CF applications and simply make them into AIR applications without significant changes.
