Compile OpenFL with Genes Sample

Compiles an OpenFL project using the Genes library. When a button is clicked, a new module is loaded from the server at runtime.

Genes modifies the behavior of the Haxe compiler to split the generated JavaScript into modern modules, instead of a single monolithic bundle. This makes it easier to integrate Haxe projects with other tooling from the JavaScript ecosystem.

Usage

Add the genes Haxelib to your project.xml file:

<haxelib name="genes"/>

Copy the templates directory from this repository to your project. Then, add the following element to your project.xml file:

<template path="templates" if="html5"/>

That's it! You don't need to do anything special to build and run.

openfl test html5 -debug
