Back in the day I used to do quite a lot of Macromedia Flash work. It’s uncannily similar but a modern take. I’ve often wondered why no one has come up with a new product in this space. I think the long term demise of Flash has put off anyone even trying. There are so many great uses for animations on the web, even if we don’t need full blown user interfaces of them and intro screens like we did back in 2002. Great j…
Just opened the editor, switched to line mode, and drew a line. It seems to have automatically switched to selection mode, rather than keeping in the mode I deliberately switched to (line mode). That's unexpected, and probably not what most users would expect. Any chance of getting that changed, so the mode only changes when the user does it? --- Also, is it Open Source? :)
No, also:
"We reserve the right to modify this Agreement or its terms related to the Services at any time at our discretion."
So it is currently free of charge, but may one day contain tracking without warning, or paid membership? The buisness plan (how to make money) is not clear to me. And this would be a major blocker for me to use if for anything serious, when one day I might loose access to my data, unless I pay an unspecified amount. You also cannot export your work to a common vector format, so will be bound by this website forever.
If you are looking for something Open Source, there is the wick editor:
(but developement is on hold)
(edit: ESR browser version slightly out of date, worked after updating. I wonder what new browser feature is being used?)

Isn’t adobe animate just flash ?
Meaning you can still create all the animations and games, but then you will have to try to port it to js and canvas (via easeljs). And that did not work very nicely last time I tried it.

Already been through that exercise with Adobe and the Flash ecosystem.
No interest at all in a repeat.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yeah. Not being FOSS is a blocker from my point of view as well. Already been through that exercise with Adobe and the Flash ecosystem. No interest at all in a repeat.
Well done
Any chance of Lottie export? I think I would use this if there was.
