There is a significantly large number of certified developers.
Andre,
You are probably correct.
Thanks to all of you who have responded to my question about deployment on the
web.

What I recommend is actually building a desktop standalone. Forget the web

Thank you, Andre, for you wisdom. What I take from your comments is if I want

WebAssembly and ASM.js (which is what the current HTML5 LC Runtime uses)

For all practical purposes we do:
The Shockwave plugin was an executable engine you could download and
install once, and then play a wide range of scripted interactive media
with it.

Hmmm…. I see:

I just did a bit of Googling and wow! It sounds like a capability to compile to
WebAssembly would put LiveCode in the big time. I wonder if there is any
interest from the dev team. Sounds much more useful than HTML5.

Thanks, all, for your comments. It would sure be nice if there was some
equivalent to shockwave, back in the days. Of course, downloadable plug-ins
like shockwave and flash apparently have too many security issues and are not
allowed anymore.
HTML5 eventually? I assume HTML5 apps would run in

Bill,
Let me second what Richard said, you'd be better served by building desktop
stack apps than by building web apps. There is no silver bullet for doing
web work, there is no magical technology that makes it as easy as LC. The
Web is a design by committee with various multi-billion companies
But apps that are browsers to bundled content are OK. That is how you get
Apache Cordova and Phonegap to work.

That's right. Apps that are just portals to web content are forbidden.

Hi Bill,
If you just want to put together good-looking quick and dirty webpages
that don’t need database interaction, you might want to use Apple’s
Keynote software. You can put together a presentation with links
from one page to another, and just export the whole thing as HTML.
It works really
Richard,
I did understand that the server was pretty much like php, but I didn’t know
how much beyond that it could go in terms of dynamic interaction with screen
objects.
The reason I wanted to look into it’s use in a browser is that for education,
lower level grades use a lot of browser
