< The Haxe syntax should be very familiar to those familiar with ActionScript and JavaScript. As it offers multiple targets (virtual machines and outputs) it can be used for a huge variety of applications.

< The compiler is lightning fast. When compared to the Flash or Flex compilers, you will find a noticeable speed increase. Since compile time is so short Haxe is an easy transition from non-compiled languages such as PHP and JavaScript.

< HaXe provides a compiler based auto-completion system which allows IDEs to integrate completion on many otherwise hard to predict objects, such as those using type inference. This makes Haxe auto-completion fast and accurate. Check out [[http://www.flashdevelop.org|FlashDevelop]] or [[http://fdt.powerflasher.com|FDT]] for example.
