ruffle VS Monaco Editor

The memories…

I often wondered what would happen to those wonderful Orisinal mini games after Flash's death, without actually checking out the site. Would Ferry Halim find the time to port them to "HTML5"? Would they just… disappear forever?

It turns out that they know run in Ruffle[1], a Rust/WASM based Flash Player emulator I've never heard of (or forgotten about). The handful of them that I have tested work flawlessly.

shrug It finds its uses. It's just not that overstated.

sandspiel is quite popular and is built using WASM: https://sandspiel.club/

Ruffle (the "make Flash run safely" tool) - https://ruffle.rs/

Ableton's Learning Synths - https://learningsynths.ableton.com/

etc etc. It's just hard to tell when something is using WASM when it "just works" and is indistinguishable from optimized JavaScript

I was amazed that the site still runs, apparently still using the same engine.

But it seems that it was a flash site (of course), and archive.org seems to replace Flash Player with "Ruffle" [1]. Either that, or someone of Tobin's team replaced Flash with Ruffle >= 2019.

Out of curiosity a couple months ago I wondered if I could play my old Proximity flash game on Newgrounds from the browser within the Quest 3 VR headset, and it worked great!

That led me to do a little searching, and I discovered that originally the game didn't work in Ruffle, as I apparently did something with the play game button that wasn't normal. But someone put a fix in it back in 2020[1] in order to get my game working again. That was pretty neat. Felt kind of nice that people still cared enough about my old game to make sure it still works in an emulator.

Still working on a more in-depth sequel (using Monogame), and I'm way overdue to make a new web version of the original. Might knock that out once I get closer to getting the sequel out there.

i believe it's using Ruffle[0] and that's already happened[1]

This is all using a really cool Flash emulator called https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle

Fyi, if you are ever looking for a fun project you might be able to implement this. The vscode editor source is available as a library https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/

VScode uses the monaco-editor to display all editor screens in vscode including the markdown editor. A simple solution is to use the in built markdown file editor and call it a day.

visual studio is open source: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode

i remember using their monaco editor as well (https://github.com/microsoft/monaco-editor), a really powerful editor & the very same used by VS Code (i think you can even get at the AST for TypeScript, for example, in the browser if you poke around deep enough)

crazy cool stuff, and most definitely OSS!!!

So lets say the project consists of two packages Lib and App in which Lib is a library and App is the frontend app which depends on Lib. Now I want to display a monaco powered code editor in App which has has access to all types of Lib. This means that I have to somehow read the *.d.ts file of Lib as a string to set it as "extra lib" for monaco.

WebView webView = new WebView(); webView.getEngine().load("https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/");

You’ll see a Monaco Editor-powered change editor. The content incoming from the Git repo is on the left, while the current content in Vrite is on the right. You can make changes in the editor on the right - this will ultimately become the result content. Once you’re done, click Resolve. If there are no other conflicts, you should now be able to pull the latest changes.

From googling about it seems that Azure uses monaco editor to make code in repos be colourised and what not. this appears to be the editor library for vscode, so that makes sense.

By referencing the ProseMirror docs, forwarding the editor state back and forth, and adjusting the layout, I managed to integrate Monaco Editor — the web editor extracted from VS Code — together with Prettier (for code formatting) right into the Vrite Editor (I know, that’s a lot of editors in one place 😅).
