Getting Started

Welcome to HaxeFlixel! To setup your Windows, Linux or Mac system to start making games, there are three steps:

  1. Install Haxe
  2. Install HaxeFlixel
  3. Run Hello World

After that, you have to choose an editor / IDE to work in. The most popular option is Visual Studio Code (VS Code) which has it's own pages here:

A more comprehensive list of options can be found on haxe.org.


Time to complete this installation is close to 20 minutes (depending on the speed of your Internet connection for downloading the components).

If you need more help, reach out via any of the communication channels.
