After installing the plug-in.
Open Flex Builder
Choose File -> New -> Apollo Project
Give it a name like MyApolloApp.
Open the main file (MyApolloApp.mxml), switch to design mode, add a few components.
You will have something like this:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?>
<mx:ApolloApplication
xmlns:mx=”http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml” layout=”absolute”>
<mx:Label text=”Hello World, Apollo Rules !!” horizontalCenter=”0″ verticalCenter=”0″/>
</mx:ApolloApplication>
Now just hit the run button 
, and you will see this:
That’s it! Congratulations and welcome to Apollo.

Hello,
It looks super easy to use Apollo with the Flex Builder 3 beta. How can I use the new AIR Beta 2 with Flex Builder 2? Thanks for the help.

You need to get the Flex Builder 3 beta or the free AIR SDK to create applications that will run in the AIR beta. YOu can no longer use the Flex Builder 2 plugin.

This tutorial was built for the Apollo alpha, Flex Builder 3 is slightly different and has the Apollo (AIR) support built in so you don’t need a plug-in. You can get Flex Builder 3 at http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/flexbuilder3/

Flex 2 is no longer supported for AIR, you will need the Flex Builder 3 beta or the AIR SDK to create AIR applications.
