Quick Start
First, install Haxe. Then, run the following commands in a terminal.
haxelib install feathersui
haxelib run openfl setup
To create your first project, run the next command.
haxelib run feathersui new-project MyFirstProject
To build and launch in a web browser, run the next command inside your project folder.
openfl test html5
If you prefer, create a project in Visual Studio Code, HaxeDevelop, and Moonshine IDE.
Sample Code
Create your first project using the Application
and Button
components:
import feathers.controls.Application;
import feathers.controls.Button;
import feathers.events.TriggerEvent;
class ExampleProject extends Application {
public function new() {
super();
var button = new Button();
button.text = "Click Me";
button.addEventListener(TriggerEvent.TRIGGER, onTrigger);
addChild(button);
}
private function onTrigger(event:TriggerEvent):Void {
trace("Button was clicked or tapped");
}
}
Absolute joy to develop with
We have a pretty significant app completely built with the Feathers SDK. Very happy with the results, and early feedback has been amazing. Absolute joy to develop with it. Thank you so much.
Darren Yuhar, Software Developer at ProfilzeVery short development times
I do not trust in any other tool to do 2D fast development considering that the UI has to be retina enabled, responsive and with transitions and animations to be programmed in very short development times.
Luis Guajardo DiazMy client was really impressed
I really like how both Starling and Feathers have proven to be great platforms for non-gaming applications. From the beginning, I felt that if you can do games, you can do anything! My client was really impressed with the multi-platform performance of AIR / Starling / Feathers, so it wasn't hard to convince them to use these libraries. Thanks, Daniel and Josh. This app wouldn't have been possible without your awesome frameworks and support!
