Minko is a tool that enables the creation of rich and interactive 3D web applications. Relying on the Adobe Flash Platform, Minko delivers high quality and interactive 3D graphics in any website. The engine has a modular architecture, allowing the developer to plug extensions to add new capabilities.

Below is a complete list of Minko features:
