Google says that "packaged apps are written in HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS" but the first one they show, Pixlr Touch Up, is actually written in Flash. New breed, eh?



From my read of the code it appears to be written mostly in JavaScript. There is one NaCl module, not sure what it does though.


Err, I guess was testing the Pixlr version in the Chrome Web Store, which I assumed would be the same thing as the “desktop” version. Is it possible that one would be Flash and the other would be something else?


Definitely, Flash is on the list of web features that are disabled in packaged apps: http://developer.chrome.com/apps/app_deprecated.html
