Flash Player was originally created as a platform for presenting animation over the Web. Future Splash Animator, the original ancestor of the Flash authoring environment and Flash Player, was a Java-based software product that was integrated into the browser in much the same manner as Flash Player is today.
Millions of Flash developers worldwide create compelling content designed for presentation in a Web application. Animation and related visual wizardry is the most common goal, and the most common result, of documents developed in the Flash authoring environment and distributed through Flash Player.
