The Web is evolving quickly, with different technologies needed at different places. For instance, if you want to create a website now you’ll have to handle several languages :
on the server side : a web language such as PHP, Perl, Ruby or Python.
on the client side : Flash (ActionScript 1, 2 and now 3) and Javascript / DHTML / AJAX.
The haXe programming language is uniting theses different platforms under one language. It brings features that are making it easy to deal with a dynamic world such as DHTML or Databases, while still bringing you a full-featured type system with a compiler that will detect errors early in the development phase.
Basicly, what haXe can do is :
create Flash SWF files using Flash APIs for Players 6,7,8 and soon 8.5
generate Javascript code using Browser DHTML API, so you can create AJAX web applications
generate Bytecode that can be used on the Server side (using an Apache plugin) or packed into standalone executable
