As FruitLoops Studio is for Audio.
If you want to do the same you have to now know JavaScript, some library and some UI frontend.
Flash enabled you to add interactive to other than just a straight up black text on a white page.
You can't even copy text now on some SPA sites nor head back in browser history without being hijacked to their home page.
What we got isn't it either.
- icedchai 3y agoYeah, Flash had its problems but it at least you "build a thing" without a ton of overhead. The complexity of today's "modern" tooling is a bit crazy. SPAs are often used inappropriately, where a simple, server-side generated site would be more efficient, easier to develop, deploy, maintain.
