Experiences of migrating a Flash based Prezi to HTML5 - Adam Bodi & Janos Harid
The digirati's favourite presentation tool Prezi have just (autumn 2010) been transformed from a Flash-based zooming presentation editor to an HTML5 player. The transformation meant evaluating the currently available animation and rendering technologies (CSS3, Canvas and SVG). Prezi opted for a hybrid solution and wrapped it in an offline application for the iPad.
See Ádám Bódi, Developer, and Janos Hardi, User Interface Engineer, at Prezi, show the quirks (blurred transform, hardware acceleration, lack of important HTML5 APIs) and tricks (Webdatabase, SVG rendering) as well.
