Is it possible to convert a project originally made for HTML/Canvas to run in Android devices ?

How ?      Thanks.

yes, you would convert to an as3 project, redo all the code (from js to as3) and publish settings to publish for an android app.

Hi.

 

You can use Apache Cordova or Electron, for example, to wrap your content into a native container.

If the project was made in Animate, you could reuse all of the animations and sounds, and rework the JavaScript to become ActionScript, then publish it as an AIR for Android project.

If the project was made in another tool, you could take the HTML and other files, and run those in a web view inside an AIR for Android project. You would want to read up on StageWebView if you took that approach.

Making AIR for Android projects isn't straightforward, there will be a lot of security and permissions details to worry about.
