To get started with Haxe/Neko, create a new folder and save this class as Main.hx.
/** Multi-line comments for documentation. **/ class Main { static public function main():Void { // Single line comment trace("Hello World"); } }
To compile, either run the following from the command line:
haxe --neko hello.n --main Main
Another possibility is to create and run (double-click) a file called compile.hxml. In this example the hxml file should be in the same directory as the example class.
--neko hello.n --main Main
The compiler outputs a binary file called hello.n in the current folder, which can be executed with neko hello.n from the command line.
