Adobe's Wallaby Converts Flash to HTML5
Posted by Michael Knutson in "Apple News" @ 11:30 AM
"Adobe Systems is making available this evening a preview of its Wallaby technology, which enables developers to leverage Flash development skills to build HTML files that can run on systems without the need for the Flash Player, including Apple iOS devices."
Adobe Labs has finally started talking about (and doing something about) the inevitable - converting Flash to HTML5 - mainly in support of the millions and millions of iOS devices around the world. This appears today to be a one-by-one conversion process, so I wouldn't hold my breathe waiting for larger sites to be converted, but this appears to be a good start. A preview (beta/experimental) version is available today from Adobe Labs, and is currently free.
