Easily play flash content across the web!

Flash Player for the Web is an extension that lets you play flash content across the web via a JavaScript flash emulator. Toolbar popup has an ON|OFF switch to enable or disable the addon. This extension uses the Ruffle emulator (https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle) to compile and play flash. Toolbar popup has an ON|OFF switch to quickly enable or disable the addon. By default, the addon is disabled. Please navigate to a webpage with flash content, then, open the toolbar popup and press on the - ON - button (with red F symbol). All the flash content should start to play. Please note that there might be some bugs in playing flash as this addon is still a work in progress. To turn off the addon, please press the - OFF - button via the toolbar popup. To report bugs, please open the addon's homepage and fill out the bug report form: https://mybrowseraddon.com/flash-player-for-the-web.html
