Thibault Imbert is a Group Product Manager on the Web Authoring team at Adobe, working on next generation tools for Web designers and developers. After a few years working for different agencies as a Flash developer, in 2008 Thibault released a free ActionScript 3 ebook called Pratique d’ActionScript 3, which was rewritten for Flash Player 10 and released by Pearson in 2009.
In 2010, Thibault led the Stage3D effort which revolutionized graphics in Flash powering games like FarmVille 2, Angry Birds and Kings Road on Facebook and introduced ActionScript workers, bringing concurrency to ActionScript developers. He recently wrote a book called “Introducing Starling” on the Starling framework which he led, to provide 2D GPU acceleration through Stage3D.
Recently, Thibault led the Adobe Scout team to transform the way developers profile Flash content. Most of his past Flash experiments are available on bytearray.org. On this blog, you can find his most recent experiments with JavaScript and thoughts about Web technologies.
