It’s not an UDE; p5.js is a programming language (originally based on Processing) intended to be easy to learn, and focused on making it easy for non-programmers to create art.
You can use it to make anything you could make with Flash, and more.
The point is that it’s a tool (specifically a programming language) intended to allow non-programmers, and especially artists, to produce (possibly interactive) art viewable in any browser, which is essentially what flash was.
No one codes directly in web assembly, on the other hand; you use programming languages that compile to web assembly. So I have no idea what point you’re trying to make by mentioning it.
I thought your point was that without flash we lacked a way for non-programmers to produce interactive art on the browser. I gave you a pretty solid option, which you discarded by calling it something it isn’t and ignoring it’s similar purpose to flash; other people gave you other solid options like modern HTML + CSS, which can currently pretty much do anything flash could without even using JavaScript (for instance, this game is made entirely in HTML + CSS, without any js), and you also discarded their answers without any rational argument.
Now I’m not sure you have a point, unless it’s simply to complain and dismiss any replies that attempt to be even remotely constructive.

That’s just a web ide. Flash was a vector tool where you could for animate and also code.

You can use a notepad to create anything you want in web assembly, that’s not the point.
