"Professional haXe and Neko"


The point here is that the haXe compiler is not a new technology, merely a program that converts a new
language to numerous existing technologies.
The benefits to using haXe are astronomical, but can be summarized by the following points:
Use of existing technologies are stretched to their fullest capabilities.
Boundaries between developers are lowered and more ground is provided for them to
collaborate.
Knowledge of the development team is increased as they write code that extends to the
technologies of their peers.
Projects are built rapidly, with less errors and platform concerns.
Projects become easier to maintain, as all team members are able to understand the language
syntax regardless of deployment technology.
The haXe classes developed for one technology can later be used to compile for other
technologies.
Compiling to Flash
Flash is a fantastic platform. So fantastic in fact, that no other tool has been able to knock it out of its
position as the most popular multimedia platform for the Web, and it will take a lot of effort to find a
viable contender.
