Have you ever clicked on an internal Flash class and got the message,
"Source could not be found for [className] in airglobal.swc"? Well, now if
you ever wanted to learn about how core Flash API works you can do so here
<https://github.com/adobe/avmplus/tree/master/core>. The source was added
to GitHub a few years ago without much fanfare but it's new to me.

For example, if you wanted to learn how the AS3 JSON class works you can
read the class here
<https://github.com/adobe/avmplus/blob/master/core/JSON.as>. The code looks
like it's in C, C++ or a form of AS3 that uses keywords like native and
metadata.

A bit earlier than that the Flex SDK design docs were released here
<https://sourceforge.net/adobe/flexsdk/wiki/browse_pages/?limit=250>.

There's also a project setup that may make it possible to package an
updated WebKit in your AIR projects here
<https://github.com/adobe/WebkitAIR>.
