A few weeks back Ext JS announced that they would soon be supporting the AIR API's. They worked with Adobe to allow Ext 2.0.2 to run within the AIR 1.0 application sandbox. One of the coolest new applications using this new library is called Simple Tasks v2 created by Jack Slocum. Simple Tasks v2 utilizes the Ext.air package to make calls to the AIR APIs. This new Ext package simplifies the use of the AIR APIs within HTML/JavaScript application as calling the AIR APIs natively is somewhat pain full.
