There was a pretty simple way to build a chromium based app with electron that allows you to run old flash application. I built this a few years ago for some customers in my old company because we had a flash backend which we couldn't port to js with reasonable effort.

A quick Google research shows that chromium disabled flash a while ago but you should still be able to use an older version in electron projects. Didn't test it but could be worth a shot.

I'm working on a zwift clone that runs in the browser and has the look and feel of a 8-bit arcade game. It's very early stage but the basics work. So if you are a indoor biker and want to join (dev, graphics, game concept or if you just want to test it for your indoor training), contact me. Contact in bio.
