Adobe has released an experimental Flash to HTML5 conversion tool on Adobe Labs, codenamed Wallaby, to help designers and developers port their videos and rich media across multiple platforms.
Wallaby is an AIR application that allows designers and developers to convert Adobe Flash Professional (FLA) files into HTML5 with a simple drag and drop –expanding the distribution of creative content across platforms, including iOS devices like the iPad and iPhone.
Wallaby is being released on Labs in response to the tremendous amount of customer interest after Wallaby was first demoed at MAX last October.
Adobe invites customers to download this tool, try out the code it generates and provide feedback on how they are using it.
With more than 3 million Flash developers in the creative community, Adobe continues to look for new ways to help them build on their existing skills and to make their content available to the widest possible audiences.
Adobe said user response to the Wallaby technology preview will enable them to better understand what types of innovations are needed in their long-term investments in both Flash and HTML5 technology.
Users can access more information and the Wallaby preview technology for free at labs.adobe.com.
