I have been searching for a program comparable to Homesite that will work on the Mac and it hasn’t been easy. If you don’t know Homesite is an HTML editing program that is a must have for Web designers. It allows direct code editing and fast preview options along with customizable shortcut buttons that save so much time.
- I tried BBedit which is ok, but doesn’t cut it.
- I tried Cody by Panic, which is a very cool program, but not customizable enough for me.
- I searched for others and nothing looked like it would work.
Then I decided to try Adobe Dreamweaver again because I’ve tried it in the past and it didn’t work out to well. Now it is very similar to Homesite and is actually working very well. Adobe owns Homesite but has not upgraded it since they bought it from Macromedia. Homesite is an excellent code editing program, not a click and drag page builder.
Dreamweaver was more of a click and drag program, but Dreamweaver CS4 is a becoming a pleasure to build sites in. It actually feels more like Homesite then any other program I’ve found so far for the Mac.
So if you’re looking for a Homesite like program for the Mac try Dreamweaver CS4. I think you will like it. In some ways it is actualy better then Homesite!
Good editing!
