Screenweaver HX – Version 1.0

Over the last months, I have been busy working on Screenweaver HX, together with Nicolas Cannasse.

Screenweaver HX is an extension to the “haXe programming language”:http://www.haxe.org, that enables creating Flash interfaced desktop applications.

GUIs can be made using either haXe, Flash or Flex; both ActionScript 2 and 3 are supported. All application back-end code needs to be written in haXe. Since haXe is a strong typed language that comes with an extensive standard library for carying out typical back-end opperations, such as database connectivity and file io, it makes a perfect platform for application back-ends.

Screenweaver HX is fully OS-X/Windows cross-platform and works with both Flash plug-ins 8 and 9. On OS-X, it runs native on both PPC and Intel Macs.

For more information and installation instructions, browse to:

A more in depth post will follow once I have some more time on my hands!
