Haxe from 1000ft, understanding haxe for newcomers

[Sven Bergström]

I've been getting a lot of people asking me questions about this type of thing, so I collated all my replies into a single blog post.

Feedback welcome, as always.

Enjoy!

Very nice!

This looks good.  But I think you should clarify targets on NME and OpenFL eg:

• NME (native media engine)
  • long standing media and game framework loosely based on flash API's
  • the original backbone of many frameworks and tools
  • C++ or Flash
    
• OpenFL (Open Flash Library)  often fairly interchangable with NME.
  • forked from NME originally to align closer to Flash API
  • general purpose framework based on Flash 2D API
  • many game frameworks built on top of it, HaxeFlixel, HaxePunk, etc
  • many tools built dependent on it like haxeui
  • C++, Flash or Html5
    

As it's important detail,

Also I am unsure if you should also cover Format,Snow, Polygonal, Tink, HaxeFixel, HaxePunk, Hxswfml, etc... I guess it's hard to decide which to cover.

Nice post. Much needed to point someone to the start with the expectations.
