This I'd like to know. Honest question, does it use flash in any form? What language is it coded in? I see JS everywhere but how is it run?

No Flash. It's HTML, JavaScript and LESS for the stylesheets, plus Chromium and native code for things like file access and the native menus.

The "how is it run?" question is answered here, where the native code lives:

We do as little as possible in the native code.
