Update on Adobe Flash Player Support
Deleted
In general it is wise decision and I am supporting this. Having less extensions would bring better security and stability. However, concern remains when there are still websites which are using Flash Player or develop games in Flash. In some cases like video or small animation, it is easy to rebuild it using HTML5, but for things like complete games in Flash Player, it is hard decision for developer.
I believe along with end of support for Flash Player, it would be good idea to support developers to build web applications using modern web standards. It might be difficult to convert game developed in Flash Player to a one in modern standard like HTML5 or WebGL. But in case there is easy way to develop one , I believe many developer would switch to it.
It would be nice in case Visual Studio extend more support for develop applications and games for web using these standards using modern web standards. In addition, Microsoft needs to add more learning content and easy to use tools to support developers in building websites using new web standards to fill gap of websites where are still using flash player.
