    Incredible achievements. First time I used Open Collective: https://opencollective.com/ruffle

    Honestly, the progress looks very impressive.

    We still need something as intuitive as Flash for developing interactive content for the web.

    I was barely 11 or 12, and it was amazing how quickly i went from drawing shapes to animating them to making them interactive with simple logic back in that summer.

    Fast forward to now, not sure what we have, that comes close to that level of ease of use. Maybe some game engine that exports to html canvas/webgl?

    I know that it's not the web frameworks and the fragile wsiwyg editors that target them.

    Really impressive work! Ruffle was already fully featured and usable for my limited purposes. I spent a couple days thinking about and finding old flash games I played in school and managed to acquire most of them. Now they live in a folder alongside Ruffle which makes them easy to play and demo offline anytime. Thanks, Ruffle team.

    I don't think there's an equivalent to flash even today. The design tools and the model behind is still probably the best way to create moderately interactive content.

    Great work, getting Flash back into the browser.

    Is there a good way of collecting information on currently missing Language / API calls in pages or files that have Flash elements not presently supported by Ruffle?

    It might make it more useful to know what makes one off well loved flash items not currently work, or which elements are commonly used but missing support.

    I never expected them to go that far, amazing!
