There are many better alternatives for professional coding that include automated building, unit testing, support for SCSS and LESS, grunt, etc. I wouldn't consider Dreamweaver a serious platform for building web applications. Useful for some, certainly, but there are many better options out there.
Probably the best for those that aren't vested in the Visual Studio platform: http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/ Second best (by the same company): http://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/ For just text editor usage, for the most part: http://www.sublimetext.com/ http://macrabbit.com/espresso/ I'd personally stay way away from Dreamweaver. It keeps you bound to a low quality workflow that's not scalable or efficient. -j On May 23, 2013, at 12:15 PM, Kenneth Kawamoto <kennethkawam...@gmail.com> wrote: > I know it's a long tradition to laugh at Dreamweaver as substandard tool, but > I actually use it daily, for two reasons: > 1.
