Toolkit for CreateJS extension

The Adobe Flash Professional Toolkit for CreateJS 1.2 is an extension for Flash Professional CS6 that enables designers and animators to create assets for HTML5 projects using the open source CreateJS JavaScript libraries. The extension supports most of the core animation and illustration capabilities of Flash Professional, including vectors, bitmaps, tweens, sounds, button, motion guides, animated masks, and JavaScript timeline scripting. With one click, the Toolkit for CreateJS exports the contents on the stage and in the library as JavaScript that can be previewed in the browser to help you start building expressive HTML5-based content in no time.

The latest Toolkit update also contains several critical bug fixes related to JSX errors. Adobe recommends that you install the latest version of the Toolkit.
