You could just write Actionscript . It was quite a pleasant and consistent experience compared to writing browser JS at the time(10+ years ago).

- thedragonline 6y agoMatches my experience as well. It was a great language for experimenting with UI design (itemrenderers anyone?). It’s a bitter pill for me swallow to have to watch it fade away.
- andi999 6y agoHow to call it? Call it by using script tag in HTML? Call it from javascript? Fileextension '.as'?
- cpeterso 6y agoYou use Adobe's Flash IDE (now called "Adobe Animate") to compile ActionScript to a .swf binary file, which you then embed in a web page with an <object> or <embed> tag. Adobe Animate can now export animations and scripts to HTML5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Animate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Animate
- andi999 6y agoThanks. Does one always have to pay (Adobe Animate is trialware) to do Actionscript programming? Probably thats where I got stuck last time (wasnt looking too hard into paid solutions)
