-Download a nightly build of the Apache Royale SDK:

+Download a nightly build of the Apache Royale SDK:
<http://apacheflexbuild.cloudapp.net:8080/job/royale-asjs/>. If you want to
build SWFs and well as generate JS output, choose the "apache-royale-0.9.0-bin"
package. If you only want JS output, you can choose the
"apache-royale-jsonly-0.9.0-bin" package.
Once downloaded, decompress it. The resulting directory contains binary
executables for the Royale compiler as well as source and binaries for the
Royale application frameworks.
-At this point you need to turn this into an SDK that Flash Builder 4.7 will
recognize.
+To be able to use the Flash Builder Launch Configurations, set the current
directory to the ide/flashbuilder folder and run:
+
+ % ant -f antscripts.xml
+
+If you want SWF output, set the current directory to the root of the SDK and
run and follow the instructions in:
% ant -f InstallAdobeSDKs.xml
The InstallAdobeSDKs.xml ANT script requires additional items to be
downloaded. The script will not download them for you, but will give you
instructions and pause so you can download them yourself. Once each piece is
downloaded, press any key to move to the next until all parts have been
downloaded.
-The script then finishes on its own and the royale-asjs repository is now
ready for you to use with Flash Builder 4.7

## Building Applications for the Browser
-Flash Builder normally builds applications to run in the Flash Player. But
Royale is designed to also run as JavaScript/HTML natively in the browser. To
do this, your Royale ActionScript and MXML files need to be cross-compiled (or
"transpiled") into JavaScript. Flash Builder can do this a launch configuration
tool.
