Wick Editor

Wick is a browser-based hybrid animation/coding environment for making interactive things for the web, heavily inspired by similar tools such as Flash, HyperCard, and Scratch. It was developed in response to a growing need for such a tool for the modern web. Wick is currently live at www.WickEditor.com, come check it out sometime!
