What is MIME type "text/haxe"?

A MIME type is a string that tells browsers and other tools how to handle a particular kind of file.

The MIME type text/haxe signals that a file contains source code written in the Haxe language. It tells software how to interpret file content for editing and compiling.

Haxe is a multi-platform language that compiles to several targets. It lets developers reuse code easily across different systems.

Key facts and uses:

• Identifies Haxe source code for proper syntax highlighting in editors.
• Instructs compilers and build tools on how to process the file.
• Supports multi-platform development environments.

Files using this MIME type typically have the HX extension. This classification improves file handling in various development tools.
