Adobe
Dreamweaver
is a workstation application developed by Macromedia, and now owned by

Adobe
Dreamweaver came from a background of
web
development applications including Drumbeat and UltraDev.
Dreamweaver
is a very powerful
web
development IDE that can harness the power of a development team or an
individual developer. The interface is so refined that the application is
perfect for beginners right through to seasoned professionals.
Dreamweaver
has extensive support for a large number of coding languages and
web servers,
such as;
ColdFusion , PHP,
ASP.NET /
ASP
and more as well as scripting languages including;
VBScript
and
Javascript to name a few. Part of the power of
Dreamweaver
comes in it s easily programmable or downloadable extentions that can add new
support for servers or added functionality to the application. It also has the
ability to perform many functions through drag and drop and other easy to use
functionalities, if you want to use them. Recent additions (Adobe
Dreamweaver

CSS,
RSS and
AJAX as well as
better support for their
ColdFusion
server.
Dreamweaver is available for
Microsoft
Windows and
Apple MacOS.
Apple has no
plans to port
Dreamweaver
to any other platform. |
