Adobe bows to HTML5 and renames its Flash Professional app

Share

Given that Flash is widely considered an internet blight, it’s hard to imagine a time when it was actually cool. But in the day, the app was the only way to make interesting animated pages, so it attracted top designers to its content creation tool, Flash Professional. Adobe has now officially ended that era by renaming Flash Professional to Adobe Animate CC. The company said that “over a third of all content created in Flash Professional today uses HTML5,” so it is symbolically acknowledging the shift with the new name. The app will still support Flash output, of course, along with other video and animation formats, including 4K, HTML5 canvas and WebGL output.
