In the same talk, Mr. Asseo lamented the return to another browser war (as seen in the late 1990s). If Flash falls out of favor, he said, web developers will either have to develop many different versions of their web sites and native applications to take into account different HTML5 implementations, deny access to browsers that do not support their version of HTML, or dramatically reduce the functionality of their sites in order to deliver content to the least-advanced browser.<sup id="cite_ref-80" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-80"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>77<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Authoring">Authoring</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Comparison_of_HTML5_and_Flash&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Authoring"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Constructing Flash websites using Adobe tools is relatively easier than with integrated development environments for CSS, HTML, and JavaScript;<sup id="cite_ref-caseFlash_81-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-caseFlash-81"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>78<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> however, many of Adobe's tools are expensive and <a href="/wiki/Proprietary_software" title="Proprietary software">proprietary software</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-caseFlash_81-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-caseFlash-81"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>78<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 2011 Adobe released a Flash-to-HTML5 conversion tool for existing content<sup id="cite_ref-82" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-82"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>79<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Because HTML5 is an open format, tools like those for Flash can be built for it, too.
