The Death of Flash?

6.17.2010 | Blog, Technology

The people over at RevShock have created custom code that allows for conversion of Flash files to Javascript/HTML5 on the fly. In the video above, they show how without having to install any plugins or special features, the code will convert your flash so that it is playable on an iPad or iPhone. This will be very handy for us in the industry trying to solve the issue of how we can get our ads viewable across the entire spectrum.

Could this spell the death of flash? I really can’t answer that. This technology really doesn’t replace flash, only allows it to be more accessible. One thing is for certain, it helps the applications that don’t support flash to gain more ground. Its a small step forward in Flash’s inevitable death, but I don’t see it slowing down any time soon. Working in the industry I am starting to see a backlash against Flash, has this started to effect the way you build projects?
