Indeed. It's as if Flash is an addictive drug, and we are coming up with ways to ween ourselves off of it.

- jbwyme 15y agoFlash was built to fill a gaping hole in the market. I think that hole is just about filled (or will be post HTML 5) for the majority of use cases. I see flash falling into smaller niche-based use cases in the near future.
- dpcan 15y agoBefore this can happen, there needs to be a brain-dead easy to use IDE for creating Flash-like presentations in HTML5. Right now, I see the biggest benefit of Flash being that I can purchase a number of IDE's and create some multimedia (or games) for the web in no time.
- recusancy 15y agoThere are already tools like Sencha http://www.sencha.com/products/animator/ http://www.sencha.com/products/animator/

- noduerme 15y agolooks like it could use a little work in firefox 5 before it's at uh, flash level quality: (screenshot) http://www.opencombinator.com/editroom.png http://www.opencombinator.com/editroom.png
- splatcollision 15y agoYes, firefox support will get there eventually... It just came out and I'm a solo developer - this is my side project. Thanks for checking it out!
- antimatter15 15y agoI made this a few years ago, http://antimatter15.com/ajaxanimator/wave/ http://antimatter15.com/ajaxanimator/wave/ I started it when I was in sixth grade, some four years ago and it hasn't changed much in the past two years. Understandably, it's not nearly feature complete. It's actually pretty interesting that when I started out, the goal was to have Flash as the output, because embedding HTML just seemed so impractical.
