< Haxe offers very tight type checking. Having compile-time checks in place allows you to catch errors in your code BEFORE testing it in the browser. This allows for a faster workflow for dynamically typed targets such as PHP and JavaScript. 
<  * **Haxe adds missing language features to target platforms**
< Haxe has been created out of a desire for better features and tools for web oriented development. It adds missing features to many of the targets - eg. inlining & generics to Flash development, packages & typing to JavaScript & PHP, dynamic objects & Runtime Type Information (enabling Reflection) to C++, and much more. Adding features to targets where they are lacking enables a Haxe developer to have the same rich set of features available for use on ALL platforms that they want to target.

< You can use remoting classes to pass objects between different platforms. Using the same codebase for difference platforms means that the same classes can be compiled for many platforms. This allows for successful de-serialization making the remoting elegant and fast.

< Code may be tailored for a single target platform, or designed for many platforms. For instance tween classes can be used in ActionScript, JavaScript and C++. Code logic can be transferred to the most suitable target in the platform with few changes, so if frontend code is running too slow, you can quickly move and test the same code running on the backend

<  * **Compiler based autocompletion** 
< HaXe provides a compiler based autocompletion system which allows IDEs to integrate completion on many otherwise hard to predict objects, such as those using type inference. This makes Haxe autocompletion fast and accurate. Check out FlashDevelop for example.
