“Easily design, develop and maintain websites”

by Elena Santos about Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5

Adobe Dreamweaver is one of the most popular coding editors among developers and web designers. It’s a user-friendly yet powerful tool that’s suitable for both beginners and advanced users alike.

The all new Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 doesn’t include big changes but rather many minor improvements that make your daily coding faster and easier. Like previous versions, Adobe Dreamweaver follows the WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) philosophy: keep an eye on the code, and the other on the final result.

Whatever your level of expertise is, you'll find that working with Adobe Dreamweaver is a real pleasure.
The program includes a bunch of tutorials and a complete Help manual for beginners, and a wide array of complex tools for more experienced users. Automatic tag completion makes it easy to code and insert any sort of element in Adobe Dreamweaver, from images to Flash animations or short pieces of audio. Plus these elements can be freely arranged and adjusted until you're happy with the final layout.

The new version of Adobe Dreamweaver includes several improvements and new features: CSS inspection to ease CSS coding, support for popular CMS platforms like WordPress, Joomla! and Drupal, integration with Adobe BrowserLab to preview dynamic web pages and local content, PHP custom class code hinting, and more.

The interface in Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 hasn’t changed that much since previous versions. It’s a clean, minimalist working space that you can easily customize according to your needs. Whether you’re a hard-code programmer, a website designer or an application coder, Adobe Dreamweaver has the perfect window layout for you.

Adobe Dreamweaver is a reference in terms of web designing and programming, and offers a lot of guidance for beginners.

Pros
  • Thoroughly documented
  • Seamlessly integrates coding and design
  • Woks with other Adobe apps
  • Support for many coding languages
Cons
  • May feel a bit complex for beginners
