Macromedia Dreamweaver alternative for Linux
Don’t you just hate the fact that Macromedia and Adobe have not ported most of their products to the Linux platform? I sure do. There is no decent alternative to Adobe Photoshop and Macromedia Dreamweaver. While I keep on looking for a non-GIMP solution to graphical applications, NVU seems to be developing into a great alternative for Macromedia Dreamweaver.
The company calls their product a “complete Web Authoring System for Linux Desktop users as well as Microsoft Windows and Macintosh users to rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver.” they add “Nvu (pronounced N-view, for a “new view”) makes managing a web site a snap. Now anyone can create web pages and manage a website with no technical expertise or knowledge of HTML.”
I completely agree. It actually is quite a decent product and it is being continuously being developed! Check it out at the website and download it here. The software is completely open-source and you can even download the source to compile it yourself!
