Totally agree with this! I miss the simple days of build once run anywhere and just being able to bash out a fun idea in an afternoon and release it and know everyone would have the same experience. Yeah security was crap with flash but surely that could have been solved. I think the battery use and apple’s desire to make sure everything had to go through their paid AppStore was what killed it really though.
- jonplackett 8y agoI wish adobe would make a flash-like interface that output html5 / JavaScript / css
- mhenr18 8y agoTheir current Animate product (they renamed Flash Pro) is pretty much what you're looking for, if I'm not mistaken.
- vturner 8y agoWhen Steve Jobs and company effectively killed "RIAs" I remember Adobe pivoting and promising a software to do what they previously had but output HTML5/CSS/JSS instead of Flash. It looks like it is still alive in the form of Adobe Animate?
- bdcravens 8y agoThe product was originally called Adobe Edge, and it was rolled into Adobe Animate.
- nostalgeek 8y ago> The product was originally called Adobe Edge, and it was rolled into Adobe Animate. Not Adobe Edge was killed dead, it was not rolled into Adobe Animate. Edge did export animation with jQuery and DOM element, while Adobe Animate exports animations in pure canvas.
- davidbarker 8y agoHave you tried Tumult Hype/Hype Pro (for Mac)? It’s not as fully-featured as Flash, but it’s similar in many ways and exports to HTML/CSS/JS. https://tumult.com/hype/pro/ https://tumult.com/hype/pro/
- jhabdas 8y agoWell look at that. Be great if they changed their pricing model. A possible 2 weeks down the drain seems a bit staggering.
