With a more advanced and complex structure than its predecessors, AS3 has a steep learning curve that can be very intimidating. Once mastered, however, AS3 is also faster, more powerful and easier to use than ActionScript 2. This is why, in the following pages, it is my hope that you will find everything you need to learn and practice the fundamentals of ActionScript 3 development.
