The search continues! (Web development software recommendations)


Recommended Posts

I’m enjoying the entire suite of Affinity products on both Mac and Window platforms. My search continues for web development software. I’ve found my Windows program, but sadly it’s not available for Mac. For Mac I haven’t found one that does everything well. Most of the stumbling blocks appear to be the responsive/adaptive nature of programs for smartphone viewing. Most of my sites are for charities, and the Adobe option became untenable. Some programs are good, but the added cost of plug ins almost doubles the cost. Some programs have awesome bells and whistles but fall off the cliff when it comes to smartphone viewing
Every designer attacks workflow in different ways. What are the groups favourite web programs for Mac, that offer a reasonable solution to responsive/adaptive design? 
My thanks

-Bill

My four penith it’s here. I use ‘Everweb’ for Mac. It’s a very competent web design piece of software. Go to their website, there is a very good library of videos and templates if you find them useful. This software is capable of producing simple, right through to complex websites. You need to take a look at their website to truly see to power of this software as there is too much to say here and you don’t have to be a code nerd and it does all the background coding for you. They also have a very good support system as well.

Good call! I’ve used its Windows-only sister product WYSIWYG Web Builder which has a similar look and feel to Serif’s ‘legacy’ product WebPlus. QEWB was originally Mac (or perhaps Mac and Linux) only, but it looks as though it’s been developed to work with Windows, too; WWB is still available as a separate product.

I'm still using Espresso 2 on El Capitan. It includes a pretty good CSS editor based on brilliant CSSEdit, albeit not as full featured as the original. It should work up to Mojave, it fails on Catalina.
Haven't tested Espresso 5 yet.
