Adobe yet again not getting it?
I realize that one person does not the voice of Adobe make, but I would have thought that he would realize that Javascript is very often not used in isolation, and more often than not as part of a large suite of technologies (Databases, network infrastructure, backend code - if not JS).
- jiggy2011 15y agoI think he's talking about using Javascript in flash's tradition role, i.e web games and interactive content.
- timc3 15y agoBut that is the point, its gradually being ignored as there are other ways of achieving the same functionality natively. Personally I deal a lot with Video on the web, and although I have a Flash player my main body of development is in native implementations and transcoding profiles for Ogg, WebM and using x264 for preview.
- randomdata 15y agoI was going to comment, if Tamarin is so great, why haven't you integrated it into the browsers? But in doing my due diligence, I realized that Adobe did give the code to Mozilla for exactly that. So this is actually about the language beyond Flash.
- gcp 15y agoWikipedia: "The project to integrate Tamarin and SpiderMonkey was called "ActionMonkey",[6] but was canceled in 2008[7] because Tamarin's interpreter turned out to be slower than SpiderMonkey." Ironically, it was too slow :P
