"Professional haXe and Neko"

When considering object orientation and how
it applies to applications development, one often attempts to attain a balance between the structured
containment of objects over data with a level of abstraction and reusability. However, by its very nature,
the structural definition applied to data in object orientation renders the possibility of absolute
abstraction as an almost impossible task. haXe helps to alleviate these issues a little by providing the best
of both worlds: the organizational facilities of object - oriented design with the applied abstract
expressions of functional programming.
Choosing a methodology in haXe is not necessary. The combined features of both programming
methodologies form to provide an almost organic experience to make developing with haXe feel almost
as though you were sculpting your application from clay. Almost certainly, the way you construct your
applications with haXe will focus more closely upon the style of programming with which you are most
familiar, but know you can be left at no disadvantage when applying the scales to the levels of which
both styles have been employed.
