Really great announcement! - sm4llprogrammer2008 - 09-14-2025
I was making a hobby project then ended up like a Flash-like animation app.
If I'm allowed to, I can send the GitHub link.
It is called Splash Animator 3.14 anyway.
Features:
File format .web-animx ('x' stands for XML)
Export options: HTML (well-tested), .web-animx (not buggy)
Programming language: CSS (to animate things you dropped on the Scene)
Version: 3.14 (major update with bug fixes)
I might improve it a lot to behave like Flash for our current web, but free and open, and so Small Basic could be it's programming language.
Mind if I can send the GitHub link?
We might end up making Small Basic famous (if the Flash community's criteria fits how Splash is designed).
The project evolved swiftly, and version 4.0 will add Small Basic (but the project would become Splash X, separately from the Splash Animator)
By programming language I mean Small Basic would be used to program Splash apps.

Hi sm4llprogrammer2008,
Of course you can share a link to your work, with maybe some explanation of how to use it.
RE: Really great announcement! - sm4llprogrammer2008 - 09-15-2025
Sure litdev, here is the link to the repo: https://github.com/randomUser2200/splash-animator
Most of the explanation is on the README.md, but here is some quick info without needing to read the README.md:
1. Download the ZIP of the repo (either 'gh repo clone randomUser2200/splash-animator', or go to https://github.com/randomUser2200/splash-animator.git directly)
2. Extract the ZIP,, delete zipped version (empty recycling bin if on Windows or etc.)
3. Open splash-animator.html
4. Done, also some buttons' icons already inform what they do. (Material UI icons design was adopted in v3.14)
Still, you can fork it to add your Small Basic implementations already if you want.

Looks nice, the Clear Canvas didn't seem to clear shapes for me.

Are you on Edge? It works better on Chromium-based browsers. Also add an issue or commit including bug fix if you'd like
