NextGenAS - Six Months Later

What exactly is NextGenAS? Well, it's a couple of things. First, it's a website with tutorials and videos that teach you how to develop for the web browser using ActionScript — no plug-ins required. Additionally, it's my effort to add new features and capabilities to the Apache FlexJS transpiler, and other open source utilities, like dts2as.

All of these things are made possible thanks to generous patrons in the ActionScript community who see value in what I'm doing and want to help out. Developers like you, who continue to enjoy working with ActionScript after all these years. Six months after I started this journey, I thought I'd do a little recap of the work I've done with the help of my Patreon supporters.

I’ve been working on @NextGenAS for six months already. Time flies! 📅 https://t.co/8qEIeov9Y8
