Why not to convert flash stuff to html5 directly? Using runtime is just extra overhead.
- lportion 13y agoI think there might be a lot of complex Flash games out there that are written in AS* that would not be too easy to port to HTML5. Or at least it would be time consuming.
- Yoric 13y agoThat would be the ideal case. However, that would require the cooperation of the owners of all this Flash stuff, and there is simply no way to get them all to agree to get rid of Flash just because the reference implementation happens to be annoying, crash-prone, unsafe, etc. So, in practice, the only way to handle the issue is to do stuff at runtime.
- frou_dh 13y agoSimilar issue to there being a colossal amount of invalid HTML out there that's never going to be made valid, so the browsers just have to do the best they can. It's the way of the web.
- Doctor_Fegg 13y agoVarious people are working on this: Jangaroo and Flex-ASJS/FalconJX (part of Apache Flex) are the two most active projects.
