An AIR (Adobe Integrated Runtime) file is an installer package file that stores web-based applications programmed using ActionScript or Apache Flex. They're usually ZIP-compressed and can be used across all desktop and mobile operating systems that support the Adobe AIR runtime, like Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and BlackBerry Tablet OS. <ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_AIR</ref><ref>https://www.archives.gov/files/lod/dpframework/id/NF00705.ttl</ref> Adobe dropped support at the end of 2020<ref>https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2019/05/30/the-future-of-adobe-air</ref> and transferred support to Harman.<ref>https://airsdk.harman.com/</ref>Originally codenamed "Apollo".<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20070614055937/http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/air/</ref>
