What is a .EDGE file?

File Extension: .EDGE File Type: Adobe Edge Project File Description: An .EDGE file is a project file created by Adobe Edge, a software tool that was used for designing animations for websites. This tool allowed users to create animations using HTML, HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS instead of using Adobe Flash. The .EDGE file contains a project that includes a multitrack timeline, which helps in animating different elements on a webpage. It uses jQuery, which is a popular JavaScript library, to make the animations work.

The .EDGE file is saved in a plain text format and when you save a project in Adobe Edge, it generates several files including HTML, JavaScript, and CSS files. It also creates a folder named 'edge_includes' that contains JavaScript libraries necessary for the animations.

Programs to Open .EDGE Files: Adobe Edge Animate CC (Note: This program has been discontinued)

More Information:

Adobe Edge Animate was a part of Adobe's suite of tools that provided an alternative to Flash for creating web animations. It used standard web technologies like HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. However, Adobe discontinued the development of Edge Animate in November 2015. For projects created in later versions of Edge Animate, the file extension used is .AN instead of .EDGE.

When you open an .EDGE file, it primarily opens the associated HTML file and the animation timeline within Adobe Edge Animate, allowing you to edit the animation and webpage elements. Although Adobe Edge Animate is discontinued, users who have the software can still open and edit .EDGE files, but no new updates or support is available for the software.
