This is amazing, and it runs soooo well.

At the same time it makes me miss Flash.

I know it's easy to hate on flash, it was kinda buggy/slow and it was also crazily insecure. But the web really got interesting with flash, people were creating games, animations, interactive websites.

All the websites are pretty static/flat nowadays. Even if from a design point of view they might look "nicer", I liked the Flash era.

You can build some pretty cool games with libraries like phaser.io.

Here's an example:

Definitely runs well. Silksmooth even on my older 2010 MacBook Pro with a recent Firefox on Os X.

Would he happy to hear more on how they compiled from their custom engine to this webasm target.
