We aren't saying Flash is a sacred graal and I personally believe all that stuff deserves the right to be explored but all this 'killing Flash' trend honestly sucks. Were coders and scripting-gurus so lazy to need Jobs' ostracism against Adobe's Flash to explore new territories? As I commented in another Andrew's post about XML and Flash {a clear sign about his point of view, Andrews shows a honest enough attitude about Flash and his thoughts about hiring game-developers clearly shows we look at these things with a similar approach... in my company I set up a whole department about game-design to bring Flash, Unity 3D and Second Life all together... Apple's policy seriously put the whole project at risk but I won't ever give up so if any of you is interested just get in touch!} the anathema against Flash makes no sense and puts at risks those with a serious intention to improve Flash impacts in web design nowadays. Why shouldn't all we responsibly work alongside in a full-compatibility approach? This 'war' leaves more corpses along our path than people probably can even imagine... So sad! @Aristophrenia

A strict subset of Javascript with type hinting has been developed - what do we as developers gain from this? no a couple of years there will be no more 'we can't use Flash as it's not standard, we can't use Flash because we don't know users have the plug in... etc etc.' and then motion graphics, on the fly bitmap rendering and highly interactive content will be part of what a JS developer can offer clients, along with traditional web design/development, not something seperated off in a 'plug-in' ghetto I think it’s significant that browsers now start along this path without plug ins, yes there is a way to go, but there is not technical reason why javascript cannot compile in the browser to achieve the same effect as flash player, both actionscript (flash) and javascript are turing complete dynamic scripting languages, so it is really all down to compilation and having a secure/fast enough runtime to execute the language – if you’re taking note of adobe labs you will see them tooling up to HTML5 standards and creating tools based on Flash to output for Canvas.

Why do we need JS for this." Now if you look, JS has outgrown Java applets and moving forward fast.\ I am not saying that JS will make Flash obsolete; it may do it one day or may not but it doesn't mean that it shouldn't support animations graphics. JS and animation algos in browsers and becoming better; Hell, <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/hack/2011/05/run-linux-on-javascript.php" rel="nofollow">Fabrice Bellard built an x86 PC emulator using JavaScript</a>. He's even gone so far as to install Linux kernel 2.6.20 on top of it I believe that this development in animation is good as it brings native competition to Flash and Silverlight and breaks Adobe's monopoly in this field. @Aristophreni: I believe, when Javascript was introduced in the browsers, critics must be saying things in the same line like you: “Providing interactivity in browsers in JS, Java applets can do that lot better that this.

Perhaps the next step will include 3D ​​Canvas? (with its full support), that developers will not need to do emulation of 3d in 2d canvas. What about hiring a web-developer to create any serious 3d project - completely agree with you. As for me, I prefer to hire someone who have experience with creating of games (c++ or c# developer - they will able to do much more with graphic than ordinary web developers) Thank you very much for the frank answer, but I still think this is just the beginning, we do not know the final plans for Microsoft, maybe they just gradually introduce 3D technology in html?

I have a VERY powerful machine - and almost every demo was clocking at a minimum of 60% - doing a simple demo with nothing else - totally unacceptable. Everything being shown here is about as useful as breasts on a bull - seriously - flash developed papervision and there is unity3d - why would anyone hire an HTML coder to do serious 3d work ? Are you absolutely kidding yourself. The Deviant art demo is about 1 5th of what was done in flash almost ten years ago now - so if your point is to show how far behind the times html is you have succeeded. The filters are simply appalling. Flash has inbuilt pixel benders and shaders - while this has, well the best that can be said is very, very ,very poor edge finding. Simply a disaster. What a load of junk. Compare this to some of the molehill demos and try and have an unbiased day - have a look at what molehill is doing - it will blow you out of the water - full PC 3D gaming delivered online - what I saw here was just really, really sad.
