Could we get a course on Haxe?

Question

It is a very versatile language and would be amazing to be able to learn.

Answer 1

Hi there is some training coming soon.

Andy Li of the Haxe foundation is organising some training.

Was there something specific you needed help with?
If your specifically interested in Mobile then there is a Haxe Fixel book out.
http://discover-haxeflixel.com/
It maybe partially out of date but I expect it would give you a good overview if your thinking of using OpenFL and Fixel. If you feeling more adventurous and what lower level power than I recommend hanging out on the Kha irc channel or the SnowKit gitter channel and just giving a go the communities are usually very helpful but there are other good mobile choices ( NME, Heaps+Lime, Flambe ).

If your looking for help with haxe web development then I believe Ufront is becoming quite a standard, I think there are some links off to some tutorials and docs.

If SoloLearn are interested in working with Haxe foundation on providing training I am sure that would be very welcomed, please contact Andy Li, perhaps twitter him.

Answer 2

@Justin front, thanks for the reply! I am having trouble mostly with the command line processes, such as compiling. However the syntax is also strange and like nothing I've ever used before, I have experience with Java, C#, and C++. It seems to have a steep learning curve, but once you get it down it's very easy to just go with it. I am actually more interested in flixel than haxe, but they don't seem to do library tutorials here so I just requested the language.

Yes please! Haxe is the ultimate Swiss army knife for programming. I used it a while ago to create software for astrophotography. The main controller was running in a Neko VM, the web UI used jQuery together with Haxe/JS, and some modules for admin used Haxe/CPP. all from a single codebase and with compatible interfaces and remoting. It is a lovely language, only lacking in documentation. Without Google I would have gotten nowhere
