to manipulate objects and apply code to the interactions of the objects in an

Did adobe really advance the state of the art with flash though? they did
stuff that the community was screaming for and had been for a long time. It
was often buggy too.

I think the main issue with EDGE is that it generates such big files. I haven't
been able to create a useful banner animation with it. Well, one that meets the
maximum file size for a HTML5 banner. Only the Edge script is already bigger ;)
Yes, I have to admit CreateJS looks promising.

Thanks for the link Mike, it seems that CreateJS is definitely a step in
the right direction.
I'm still not sold on Adobe's EDGE suite though... I am afraid that I'll
always be skeptical of generated HTML after seeing Dreamweaver's design

However, it'll be primarily a toy and best for demo work until (and if) Adobe

"Dead" might have been too strong, admittedly. But it's a hard sell. Partly
because every client has an iPad these days, and if their content doesn't

That seems to be Adobe's general problem. They are very reactive, like
