Macromedia Captivate (later acquired by Adobe) was one of the first major players into the game. It was a very difficult process and only a few people possessed the skills to actually pull it off. These people could also charge quite a bit for this service, so not all was bad. Rapid elearning development software changed the game.

Question: I've been using Macromedia RoboHelp HTML X5. I am considering upgrading to Adobe RoboHelp 9. Before I do so, do you know if RoboHelp 9 will open my project? I know that X5 is very old at this point but if RoboHelp 9 rejects my X5 project, I'm stuck using X5. Answer: Yes, your X5 project, while old, will upgrade.

At some point, we started using Macromedia Director and that was a huge shift. For one thing, we didn’t have rapid authoring tools. The course developers at my first learning company programmed everything from scratch, which we then had transferred onto CD ROMS.

A product called Macromedia Flash (being used with web sites) became a go to for course development. Macromedia Dreamweaver came out with templates. The idea of a rapid content authoring tool, whereas anyone could build a course quickly was appalling to everyone who built courses. I used DazzlerMax. Storyboards were common.

Remember End of an Era – Authorware – another Macromedia/Adobe product. However, if you have to prioritize Flash vs. HTML 5 vs. ??? then I would put learning Flash (especially scripting in Flash) way down on priority list at this point. These things do eventually die out. How valuable are your Authorware scripting skills at this point?
