For sure, you get html/js/css so it's more easy nowadays to integrate it
browser or as an App with Cordova or AIR.

Maybe better others here respond this. I think we have some ways to draw a
circle, but sincerely I didn't look into that.
But seems something as well doable without much problem.

I think that is integration with mobile, that's out of Royale scope (like
in Flex), is something in the realms of AIR/Cordova

I think we don't have now push notifications, but seems to me something to
mashup like JSON/AMF or other third party libraries.
If you think in a generic library, you can develop and contribute it to the
project if you want.

My opinion on animations, effects and transitions is that should be done
mostly on CSS since is the way to do this nowadays.
Maybe in SWF part that will requiere more code, but if you target HTML, I
think you have the pieces now.
In the other hand, to make more creative things like in pure Flash (like
when in old days we integrate Flash with Flex apps), I think
you can take a look at the side project "spriteflexjs" that is mainly the
recreation of the flash functionality using apache royale compiler.
(I continue thinking that this project should be donated and integrated
some day as part of apache royale...

I think the technology is now ready. But you must to think that some of
your needs can still not in Apache Royale, but is easy to work on it and
contribute your work to help fill the last holes we could have. For
example, I need for my app a DateField and Autocomplete controls...the
first is in Basic, and the other I know how to do it...it's a matter of
doing! :), so I'll be doing in the following days ;)

The same applies to the rest.

Thank you Angelo and great to see another App made in Royale coming! :)

Hope we could soon start to fill the showcase page in our website with all
this new Apache Royale Apps! :)
