I have to do a college project, where I have to do an LMS, and one of the requirements is to allow the import of SCORM files. However, when I went to research I saw something about SCORM using the flash player, which ended support this year. Can anyone answer the question if SCORM really needs the flash player to work?
No. The only hard technical requirement is a JavaScript environment (or an environment that sufficiently mimics a JavaScript environment) which is why SCORM is very often considered a browser based specification. "Browsers" and therefore JS environments are finding their way into all kinds of places.
