There's still no replacement for the specific thing Flash did. I get that Flash itself sucked (the power use...) but it's really damn sad we simply lost what it could do. I'd have thought we'd have a replacement by now, but no. Incidentally, last I checked, no replacement for the marquee tag, either. That tag had a lot of features, in fact, and when I looked a couple years back there seemed to be zero projects that c…

Flash never sucked or had power use issues. Maybe Mac users had a sub par experience. Mobile first was the issue. Adobe bought it and blundered about, they could still resurrect the thing but have no vision.

Why? React’s component model can be an excellent abstraction for building a “normal website”—or rather, its component parts—for developers who prefer it. React can compile to static HTML, without running any JS client side, and/or can be used to mount or hydrate arbitrary subtrees however one sees fit. (I’d probably favor Preact or Solid for the latter, but React is a perfectly cromulent choice)

Or just be a sane person and use HTML, CSS, and templates, and sprinkle some HTMX on top for interactivity.
