Electron 2.0.0 beta

I was a Flash dev for years, and then kept on doing Adobe Air apps for museums and mobile. Adobe dropped the ball on it pretty quick once HTML5 went mainstream. New features and bug fixes take ages.

I still think AS3 is one of the best languages I've ever used. It was really ahead of its time.

"New features and bug fixes take ages."

ORLY?

It has been many years that Adobe AIR is updated on a quarterly basis, every March, June, September and December

So?

Major features are the ones that matter. It took Adobe like 3-4 years to bring concurrency to iOS. AS4 was killed after years of promises. Etc.
