HTML5 (the new HTML/web-page language standard) is now widely touted as the replacement of Flash, and over the past few years a number of tools have been developed to automatically convert Flash to HTML5. However, HTML5 will not yet be replacing all Flash apps for the following reasons:
1. Older widely used web-browsers do not support HTML5. According to the latest statistics the majority of Internet users are still using browsers that do not or only partially support HTML5. If you look at the enduring usage of the relatively ancient Internet Explorer 6.0 (released in 2001) you can see that it could take at least another five years or so for the large majority of people to be using web-browsers which fully support HTML5. Even relatively recent versions of the popular Internet Explorer and Firefox browsers have only limited or no support for HTML5.
2. Mobile devices do support HTML5, but also Flash – through the appstore. Android devices support Flash in the mobile browser up to Android v 4.0, but iPads and iPhones do not. The future of Flash on mobile devices and tablets is not in the web-browser, but in the appstore. These are Flash apps specifically designed for touch-screen interfaces. iPads and iPhones do support Flash-based apps through the appstore, and Android devices through the Google Play Store. Many of the most popular iPad and Android apps are Flash-based (you just don’t know it, because it is not advertised anywhere). An example is the Flash game Machinarium, which when released on the iPad quickly became the number one paid iPad app.
3. HTML5 still has some limitations. HTML5 can replace online videos, advertising and animations, but still has limitations when it comes to more complex applications. More advanced Flash applications, including relatively complex Flash games and visualization applications such as StatPlanet, are not easily replaced using HTML5. The power of HTML5 (+Javascript & CSS 3) is advancing, but creating complex apps with HTML5 still remains very difficult and some of the functionality present in Flash cannot yet be replicated. Developing HTML5 to become a more robust platform with capabilities similar to those currently in Flash will take time.
4. Tools to convert Flash to HTML5 are still limited, and for complex applications it is not an easy process. As long as Flash cannot be easily converted to HTML5, many complex Flash apps, games and platforms are here to stay in Flash form. In the meantime, there are several other projects which promise conversion of Flash ActionScript to Javascript:
Haxe
Haxe – A cross-platform toolkit which is growing in popularity. It is similar to ActionScript and hence it is one of the easiest options for conversion, in particular if used through OpenFL. Haxe can compile to several languages including JavaScript. Some partial automatic conversion tools are currently available, such as as3hx and as3tohx.
Shumway
Mozilla’s Shumway uses TypeScript (see below) to translate ActionScript. It is already available as a Firefox extension, and recent headlines on news websites such as TechCrunch already anounced that Shumway eliminates the need for Adobe Flash Player. However, on testing the latest release on 22 Feb. 2015, that does not seem to be the case (yet). In fact, Shumway did not work with any of the applications or Flash games tested. Some did not load, another loaded but did not play, and one crashed the browser.
ActionScript to TypeScript conversion
TypeScript is a superset of Javascript developed by Microsoft. It is quite similar to ActionScript, enables developers to build more powerful and robust applications (compared to plain JavaScript), and has been widely adopted since release. So for these reasons it is a popular choice for conversion from ActionScript. There are several ActionScript to TypeScript conversion tools, such as AS3toTypeScript, and the more recent as3-to-typescript.
FlexJS
Apache FlexJS and FalconJX is another promising prospect, though still in the early development stage. It aims to convert Flex MXML/ActionScript to HTML/JS/CSS.
Jangaroo
Jangaroo which features some impressive demos of Flash ActionScript to JavaScript conversion, but it is not as actively developed as Haxe.
5. Compared to Flash actionscript, HTML5 / javascript is easier to decompile and re-use. Developing a commercial product with HTML5 / javascript is a bit more tricky, because even with obfuscation the code is visible as plain text in the browser. For Flash, third-party non-free software is required to view the code, which is an impediment to potential hackers (or anyone who wishes to illegally use a non-free product). This makes it more difficult to sell javascript-based apps which run in the browser (rather than in the form of a mobile app).
Review of Adobe Flash to HTML5 conversion
HTML5 conversion is now included in Adobe Flash Professional CC (formerly available as a seperate Create JS Toolkit). Flash “.FLA” files can be converted into HTML5 which can subsequently be edited in Flash itself or other web-development applications such as Dreamweaver. It is a promising tool, but currently its functionality is quite limited. It is useful for converting animations, and recently added limited support for converting ActionScript to JavaScript. It is suitable for relatively simple projects (in terms of coding) but for complex projects with hundreds or thousands of lines of ActionScript code, the conversion process is still far too tedious.
Review of Google Swiffy Flash to HTML5 conversion
At the moment Google Swiffy, released just a few months after Adobe’s conversion tool, is the most promising of the two for more advanced Flash creations. This is because in addition to animations and graphics it can also convert Actionscript 2 and 3 into HTML5. Swiffy can convert Flash on the fly right in your browser and the conversion process is very fast – results often appear within seconds.
On the downside, Swiffy does not yet fully support Actionscript 3, and a number of common features cannot yet be converted. Swiffy is updated regularly though and the latest updates can be seen in the Swiffy release notes.
The Swiffy HTML output cannot be edited (or at least not easily), unlike the output from Adobe’s CreateJS Toolkit.
Swiffy shows a lot of promise, and although it may not be able to convert very complex apps and games, with a bit of tweaking it can be used to convert almost anything.
