Before DevOps was a thing, deployments required manual interaction. Smart shell scripts helped sometimes, but they faced the problem of also not working in windows environments. We set out to leverage Flex and Adobe AIR to create an application that perform selective copying and load file settings so that it didn't need to be manually created each time.

This allowed us to update a project, open a settings file and run the copy to deploy to a location.
