HaXe your way to the web!

I was searching for a free solution to create Flash web applications. I found the HaXe programming language and related tools, able to compile into Flash .swf file.

As I came to know, Flash programs are written using the ActionScript language (apart from being drag'n'dropped with Adobe's IDE), the most recent version is AS 3. The HaXe syntax seems quite similar to that of AS3, so with HaXe knowledge AS3 scripts are easy to understand, maybe to write, too.

HaXe also retains the Flash library in a conservative way, so navigating the standard AS3 docs seems fine.

HaXe/AS3 quickstart:

Have fun coding!
