is everything totally different?

for example in as2 I relied on two simple easing functions, easeing and spring.

In AS3 does everyone use Tween classes?

I want to have a side menu that has each link tween in one after another. This shouldn’t be difficult?

Xml is also done entirely differently?

What advice would you give me going into AS3?

Thanks
