3D and 2D: Testing out my cross-platform graphics engine
> The point of Haxe seems to be as a meta-compiler to generate code for a bunch of different languages/compilers?
That's basically correct, although there is also a cross platform runtime called Hashlink but is unsupported by Kha.

Ask HN: Does anyone here use Haxe?
The person who made Haxe (Nicolas Canesse) went on to found Shiro Games (https://shirogames.com), a game development company. I believe all their games are made in Haxe. The latest one, "Dune: Spice Wars" was released this September and Google says the engine is HashLink (https://hashlink.haxe.org/) which is a VM for Haxe.
I don't know any other companies who are releasing games in Haxe today.

SDL2 is zlib licensed but why it's not included in other code repositories?
I've seen it in SDL2_image source and also Hashlink repository. They included other dependencies but removed SDL2 in their source code (gitignored it).

Try the new try.haxe!
Well, it also has its very own [Hashlink, virtual machine](https://hashlink.haxe.org/).
And it can also compile down to various bytecodes (like JVM), not just to other languages.

lots of errors when trying to compile cpp chat server file
According to this, I think you have to specify -lwsock32 -lws2_32 to use the built-in .lib files that contain __imp_recv etc.

Wax compiler – a tiny language designed to transpile to other languages
This remineds me of Haxe[1]. I like Wax better because of the Common-Lisp-like syntax.

Marimo: Interactive Fluffy Ball
I thought this was a three.js demo but it's actually built with a language called haxe [1]. I've never heard of this language before and looks really cool. Makes me want to play with it!

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
The Haxe programming language (https://haxe.org/). It's insane how unpopular this is compared to its value.
"Haxe can build cross-platform applications targeting JavaScript, C++, C#, Java, JVM, Python, Lua, PHP, Flash, and allows access to each platform's native capabilities. Haxe has its own VMs (HashLink and NekoVM) but can also run in interpreted mode."
It's mostly popular in game dev circles, and is used by: Nortgard, Dead Cells, Papers Please, ... .

I really enjoyed programming in AS3, and https://haxe.org/ was really helpful at the time to make development easier.

TIL: "private_constant"
Been tinkering in the Haxe programming language recently. I definitely suggest checking it out, but one thing I liked was private constants. I know other languages have this, but its where I've encountered it most recently.
What are some alternatives?
SDL - Simple Directmedia Layer
Nim - Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
