Welcome to the haxeflixel-mechanics wiki!

About

This repo is the development environment for HaxeFlixel-Mechanics, a website tool to demonstrate, explain, and show off individual concepts of the HaxeFlixel library.

Why not stick with the current demos, docs, tutorials, and API?

I feel like it is currently pretty difficult to a newcomer to jump in and start using HaxeFlixel. The current tutorial is good, but is very specific and doesn't do enough to really explain concepts, while the demos and API are just a lot of information - you have to know what you're looking for and/or spend a lot of time digging through code to find out what you want to know - and this can be very daunting for someone trying to figure out how to just get started.

Why a separate repo?

The current state of the HaxeFlixel website, while functional, is sort of a mess behind the scenes and is difficult to work with and make changes to. Also, since this project is sort of meant to be it's own resource, it made sense to start with it as a separate entity so as to prevent it from interfering with the Haxeflixel.com repo (and vice-versa). In the future, this project may end up being merged into the HaxeFlixel website.
