• Thinking of switching from photoshop to affinity

  I switch in 2014 and never went back. The learning curve is something you need to be aware of and also the fact you need to buy other apps as well. For example I have these apps accompanying my Affinity suite: Hype4, Pixelmator and Art Text plus a free app that is a Figma alternative called Penpot. Why? Because these third apps would do what Affinity can’t. With all those apps, you won’t need Adobe to survive in... Source: 11 months ago

• I still use Flash in 2022

  Man I miss Flash too! Tumult Hype is the closest thing to it, but the editor's Mac only. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Are there things that Flash did that we still can’t do with today’s web?

  I keep hoping that we’ll be able to package Flash-grade animations as WASM and send them out as a single file (or as two files, one for a Haxe-like runtime and another for the game or animation). But since there is no real standard authoring tool (and nobody mentions those, or the ease of use the Flash “IDE” had) I don’t have much hope. The closest I’ve seen (and actually use) is Hype (https://tumult.com/hype/),... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  On Mac there is Hype. The earlier versions were pretty good, but I haven't used the latest. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Spiritual Successor of Flash Websites?

  BTW, you might also want to check out Tumult Hype, I used it for some projects that were similar. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Website "Builders" for People with Development Skills?

  Check Pinegrow. It's perfect builder for someone who know how to code. You will need to get used to it, but once you are familiar with it, its super great :) Https://pinegrow.com/. Source: 10 months ago

• How do you build something like this and how long would it take? I have experience with HTML, CSS, and JS. Should I learn a particular JS framework? Or would I be able to achieve this with Figma and Webflow? Would appreciate some links to useful resources as well.

  Figma is a design/prototyping tool. So probably yes, but it's not directly resolving your end result. Webflow is SaaS, specifically a visual builder for websites. The two are not really comparable in which to choose. A better comparison would be Figma or XD. And for Webflow, something like Pinegrow, or CofeeCup's Responsive Site Designer. Would be better comparisons. Source: 10 months ago

• Webflow seriously needs a desktop app...

  5+ year web flow dev here! i’ve been heavily contemplating a move to pinegrow or the “open source webflow” webstudio. Source: 10 months ago

• Dreamweaver Alternative

  I also don't have much experience with DW but something that I have seen do similar stuff is pinegrow which is quite cheaper. It has free trial so maybe you could see if it will fit your needs. Source: over 1 year ago

• I am just flabbergasted and in complete stupor (point me to an MS FrontPage alternative)

  Pinegrow is pretty awesome and free and something I'm increasingly working with. Source: over 1 year ago
