В одном чате вспомнили недавно Flash. С этой технологией связана значительная часть моей жизни и становления, как специалиста: с неё я начал учить программирование и на ней же заработал не только первые серьёзные деньги, но и вообще одну из крупнейших в своей жизни сумм за единицу времени (тогда был экспоненциальный рост игр для соцсетей, мне тоже удалось чуть-чуть вписаться).
Никогда не прощу Apple убийство флэша. Этот софт опережал своё время: художники рисовали на нём полноценные мультики и делали сложные анимации, а программисты создавали демосцены и игры, богатые графикой и даже, при желании, с физическим и 3D-движком. В старших классах я на флэше делал работу для экзамена по географии. Казалось, там можно вообще всё.
У флэша почти не было проблем совместимости. Да, ему требовался Flash Player, но зато во всех браузерах флэшки отрисовывались и работали одинаково. Не нужно было думать о том, что какой-то очередной браузер из-за мудачества его разработчиков не поддерживает очередную команду, тег, свойство или API.
Возможности по графике, интерактиву и медиа в браузере только недавно еле еле догнали то, что мог флэш в 2000-х. А язык программирования ActionScript 3.0 и сейчас на световые годы впереди JavaScript'а.
Да, были недостатки. Проприетарность технологии тормозила и развитие и активность комьюнити. Никакой резиновой вёрстки — только скалярное пространство с числовыми координатами под заданное соотношение сторон. Да, в какой-то момент появился MXML, но это совсем отдельная ветка. Хотя, сейчас вон тоже сайты под десктопы и мобилы по суди два раза верстают.
Я нашел этот скриншот в статье 2011 года, которая заканчивается так: «...что касается интернет-приложений и разработки игр, тут Flash на долгие годы останется лучшим выбором для разработчика». Уже через год после этой статьи Adobe объявила о будущем скором прекращении поддержки технологии.
Впрочем, некоторые современные инструменты, такие, как Unity, позаимствовали очень многое у Flash, так что можно сказать, он переродился.
