Getting Started with CDF

You can create CDFs with Mathematica. Additional creation methods will be coming in the future, ranging from Wolfram|Alpha to on-demand online Mathematica services.

How to Get Started:

1. Watch brief videos: Creating a Knowledge App in 60 Seconds and Making Documents Interactive with CDF.

2. Download a free trial of Mathematica to create your own CDFs. Comprehensive documentation is available on how to create CDFs, interactive controls, and many other topics.

3. Repurpose the source code of thousands of CDFs available from the Wolfram Demonstrations Project. For example, a Demonstration's source could be as straightforward as the code shown below.
