Cadet is a general-purpose editor framework. It enables users to visually edit scenes which use in-house or 3rd party libraries, such as the Away3D rendering engine or the Box2D physics engine.

The editor provides undo/redo functionality, load/save, group select/edit and supports importing external assets into both browser and desktop versions. The Cadet component framework also supports custom Behaviours (e.g. bike or car physics), which can be scripted in AS3 and manipulated via the editor.
