Adobe finally accepted the fact that Flash will die.

With the rise of HTML5, once swept the world of Flash has gradually been forgotten. But I think Flash is really the only choice for people to make moving animations, so it attracts countless developers to animate with Adobe's Flash Pro.

Today, Adobe has officially put a full stop to the Flash era by renaming the Flash Pro to Adobe Animate CC. Adobe claims that "more than One-third of the animation produced by the Flash Pro now belongs to the HTML5 type," which in some way has been approved. This software will of course continue to support the production of Flash animations, including support for the 4K,HTML5 canvas, as well as the WEBGL output.

But what you should know is that the Flash Pro becomes animate cc, not a mutation, because it's been a bit of a HTML5 canvas and WEBGL support. This change of name only says that the latest version will have significant new features, including support for vector-based art brushes, easier audio synchronization support, more video format support, and better integration with other new cloud applications.

In fairness, flash in its heyday is to bring great value to everyone, even can be said to be exceptional success. Today, there are many websites and apps that rely on Flash, including many Facebook games and websites that offer video animation services.

But with Steve Jobs's shouting about a flood of security and stability concerns about Flash, the software rout is declining. Then YouTube and Twich both started fading out of support for Flash, and Mozilla is now starting to launch default settings to block Flash animations, and recently Amazon, Google and Facebook have joined the flash terminator.

Adobe seems to accept the inevitable demise of Flash, saying in its official blog, "Look ahead, we encourage content creators to follow the new Internet standards, and we will continue to provide the best tools and services to support animation design." ”

In other words, Adobe provides Web developers with a large number of core development software, including Dreamweaver, Muse, and InDesign, so it is not necessary to continue to carry the blame for the reverse trend, even if Flash was indeed the gold standard for animation on the Internet.
