My question is, how do Haxe and NME relate? I started reading about Haxe, started working with the tool, then found all these references to NME which I'm not clear if it's a subset or a fork or ?

Would like to use this for the game I'm working on since the idea of write once, compile everywhere is seductive. Of course I seem to recall that when Java first came out that was supposed to be it's claim to fame...



NME is a library for Haxe.

It basically provides an implementation of the Flash API for the C++ and Javascript targets, besides the SWF target that Haxe offers natively.

It also comes along with tools that allow this generated C++ code to be easily compiled and deployed to Android, iOS, Blackberry and WebOS devices.

So, if you write an app that targets Flash Player using Haxe, you can use NME to deploy to all these targets with no modification to your code.
