Hey folks, I added the new Lua target to the list of supported platforms.
I hadn't read this article in a while, and I think it needs some love. Here's some concerns:

Why does this show with "haxe" as the title instead of "Haxe" which it should be? -- Tom Jenkins (reply) 08:36, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
I have edited the article removing and clarifying claims such as "full support for iPhone, Android, Windows, Unix, Mac, etc", since Haxe currently only supports a subset of the full platform API. Please do not remove this clarification. Before my edit, Haxe appeared to be a full-featured multiplatform language which it is currently not. Please do not add biased statements into the article inferring the same.
I've also wikified and improved the organization of content within the article, which was quite a mess. Please improve as necessary. -- Tom Jenkins (reply) 09:30, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
Nicolas Cannesse and friends, please stop adding the JS/NodeJS and other langs to the "full support" category unless you can prove full platform API supported. If it does, add refs to prove it. Currently the API page has 40 JS classes. Is that full support? And what about the 100 NodeJS classes? Unless you can show EVERY function from EVERY class, it does not qualify as full support and therefore Haxe cannot be used as a full replacement to that platform's native language. Saying it has full support is misleading and incorrect. -- Tom Jenkins (reply) 06:44, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
The article states that Haxe supports GADTs (generalized algebraic datatypes), by giving the examples of Option<T>, Either<T,U> and ConsList<T>. All these are merely regular ADTs (algebraic data types). The only enhancement they have over the Color type earlier in the article (properly marked as an ADT) is that they are parameterized. That alone is not sufficient to make a type a GADT: in a proper GADT, values produced by two different constructors are allowed to have different type expressions in the parameter position of their types. Just see the referenced generalized algebraic data types article. This is not a claim that Haxe does not have GADTs [I don't know; I was reading this to learn about the language]. -- Noodlefarian ( talk) 22:13, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
The following is past discussion between Wonderfl and SimonHaxe, copied here due to its relevance to the Haxe article.
You seem to be confused about the relationship of Haxe and OpenFL, so I would like to clarify. Haxe is a language and a compiler on which OpenFL is built. This relationship is directional: OpenFL depends on Haxe but in contrast Haxe has no inherent notion of what OpenFL even is. It is then irrelevant to the description of Haxe itself, which is what the introduction text should provide.
It is not the job of the Haxe wikipedia page to improve the "discoverability of OpenFL". However, as I suggested OpenFL could be listed in a "Software built on Haxe" section in the Haxe article. From a Haxe point of view it is on the same level as Flambe or Kha which could both be mentioned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SimonHaxe ( talk • contribs) 17:02, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
Hi all, I've improved the article by adding as many third-party references I could find using Google Book Search. I'm sure there are more articles/reviews on the internet but I have no time at present to add them in. The following sections have been affected:
I hope all is well. If not, spend a minute to improve it!

Is there any place in this page for a collection or list of library's that extend Haxe such as HaxeFlixel ( http://haxeflixel.com) or HaxePunk ( http://haxepunk.com)? Dancan12345 ( talk) 17:56, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Haxe. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{
Sourcecheck}}
).

@ AtlasDuane: I don't see any content in this article that is "written like an advertisement." Why did you add this cleanup tag to the article? Jarble ( talk) 03:56, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 5 external links on Haxe. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
