Adobe introduced Animate CC as the evolution of Flash Professional. The change in the name is due to the change in the role of the application. While Flash Professional was focused on creating SWF content, Animate CC was designed to create animation.

🚀 Flash Professional CC has long been allowed to export content into different formats, but the transition from proprispric technologies to web standards has opened new opportunities for a community that was previously known as Flash.

  • 📌 Animate CC is intended for any animation tasks, including microzimadias, banner advertising, interactive infographics.
  • 📌 Animate CC allows you to work with the JavaScript code, so the scripts we used to replace Flash animation can now be used as a part of a powerful, unified workflow.
  • 📌 In Animate CC, you can export content for HTML5 Canvas, WebGL, 4K Video, as well as generate spray sheets based on key frames and animate them using CSS.

💡 One of the interesting novelties is colors. It's like Sass varnish, but for vector graphics: set the color as a label, use it in your work, later change this label and see how the color is updated in your work.

🧩 Summary: Adobe successfully updates its animation app, changing its name from Flash Professional CC to Animate CC and focusing on using web standards instead of properential technologies.
🧠 Own considerations: If Adobe continues to develop Animate CC, given the requirements of modern web design and technology, this tool can be an important element of the web designer toolkit. However, it is important that Adobe continues to monitor trends and adapt its tools to the needs of the market.
