Flash web development is the process of creating websites, applications, and elements using Adobe Flash software. It allows for interactive features, HD video and audio experiences, and artistic designs. Flash is commonly used for online games, sales pages, and internet video sites. It can be viewed on both personal computers and mobile devices.

Flash® web development is the process of creating and designing websites, applications and elements using Flash® software. Using Flash® web development, designers can create animated websites with unique functionality and navigation. When coupled with Java® web development techniques, developers can also create Flash®-based applications and web design elements that offer a range of interactive features.

The software used in Flash® web development, called Adobe Flash®, was created by Adobe Systems Incorporated, formerly Macromedia®. Adobe Flash® can be purchased in a package called the Adobe Creative Suite® which includes several Flash® development tools. Using Adobe Flash® software and Flash® web development techniques, website designers can create sites that offer support for a variety of mobile devices, including smartphones, netbooks, and personal computers.

Flash® websites are known for their interactive features. Design elements can move, change color, disappear completely, or otherwise interact with the user. For this reason, Flash® web development has been a popular tool for creating online game sites and sales pages. By creating an interactive user experience, Flash® website design allows webmasters to keep visitors entertained for longer periods of time, thus improving conversion rates compared to traditional, less interactive designs.

In addition to the interactive capabilities of Flash® web development, it also offers the ability to embed high definition (HD) video and rich audio experiences into design elements. As a result, Flash® is regularly used on Internet video sites and in banner ads. With very modest resource consumption, Flash®-based web elements can provide a total audiovisual experience that can be viewed on both personal computers and mobile devices with the same high level of quality.

Using Flash® web development tools, web designers and developers can create more artistic Flash® websites and applications than ever before. By mapping locations and functions to images, designers can do away with the straight-edged box-like designs used on older websites and can instead create sites with rounded corners, floating elements, and artistic embellishments. With the use of Flash® design elements, web designers and developers can create entire Flash® websites that work from a single page, by sliding elements into the frame and back, thus reducing loading times and providing a smooth user experience.
