If your environment doesn't support one of these you will need to import a shim or polyfill.
⚠️ Thereflect-metadatapolyfill should be imported only once in your entire application because the Reflect object is mean to be a global singleton. More details about this can be found here.
There are many frameworks and patterns out there that helps you to write DOM-based applications. There is no scalable solution yet to architecture a canvas-based application though.
Robotlegs has proven itself of being a mature solution from the ActionScript community for interactive experiences.
