haXe is not only Flash. You can use the same language to develop the JavaScript part of the website, and the Server part as well. Hence having one single language on the two sides : client and server. True but why would I need that? Why would I give up the ubiquity of technologies like

Another reason might be speed. The virtual machine is 20 to 40 times faster than PHP interpreter or Flash Classic VM. That helps you serve a The effects of a server VM being faster than the old version of a client VM (Flash classic) is a Hard Thing to Assess :) But, of course, sounds great

There's been progress in this domain as well. You should expect haXe to be able to get AS3 speed and new APIs quite soon. Plus, you will still be able to use haXe to target Flash 6-7-8 player which is not the case for AS3. Of course it's the case with AS3. It's perfectly possible to write AS3
