Playing with this but I just love the idea. It's basically AS3 translating into JS without Flash plugin. Just wanted to let you Flash/AS3 folks in the loop if you haven't already seen it.
Jangaroo is an Open Source project building developer tools that adopt the power of ActionScript 3 to create high-quality JavaScript frameworks and applications.
Useful links if you code in AS3 and want to take a peak:

Particle SDK Enables Translation of Object-Oriented Languages into HTML5 and Native Applications for Smartphones and Tablets
http://www.businesswire.com/news…Particle code is even more interesting.
I love AS3. It's really a beautiful language and is much more advanced than JS. So this is all +1 from me.
I am playing with this right now so I'll put in my 2 cents once I explore it a bit further but this is really great stuff to evolve and it's really nice to see AS3 being pushed beyond the Flash plugin.

@eficks
I personally know a few of them.. but some are just nicer to work with.. Get off your high horse dickwad.

highhorse? ok then... just don't understand why you would want to code in AS when its being output in JS. i dunno, seems redundant.

@Boz - thanks for checking out the Particle SDK, we're excited to hear your thoughts. @eficks, no matter where developers come down on language patriotism, there are a few additional reasons we think the SDK is a powerful tool for cross-platform apps, including a robust front-end for UI fragmentation management, reaching all devices with one codebase, remaining flexible to target native AND web apps, etc. Happy to discuss further and answer any questions you have about the SDK - free and available on our website.
