Question What Do You Use To Build Your Websites?

Why am I asking? Why not?

And I'm not talking about scripts like TGPX, but more interested to see what everyone uses to write/code the HTML for their sites.

Please include links (with referral codes if they offer one) and a little info on how &/or why you use it.

Here's mine:



Namo WebEditor 5.5 - It's a WYSIWYG HTML editor that I got after Microsoft pulled FrontPage Express from Windows circa 2000 or so I think this version was released in 2003. I did upgrade to v9.0 when they released it, but it was really buggy (it'd automatically make any letters in a URL lowercase, which really fucked up affiliate codes ) & they vanished soon after that (back now, but it looks like it's just for eBooks?) You can still download it if you search Google, but I'm not sure if you can still register/license it or not (and it's useless unless you bought a license). While I did learn HTML on Notepad, making tables was so much easier with a WYSIWYG and, at the time, I'm not sure I even new about Dreamweaver. I did try it a couple years back, but the learning curve was too much for me

I use this basically all day, every day. The only really bad thing about it is that it fucking butchers the coding that you need to use in TGPX, so I basically have to have 3 files for each page on a site that's using TGPX (ex: index.html, index.txt, and index-code.txt) where I build the .html page in Namo, using simple text as a placeholder for where the TGPX coding goes (like "xxxNEWREGULARGALLERIESxxx" is on my version of the Chubby Links index page where today's new galleries will load). I then save it as a .txt file, search & replace a couple of things (ex: </php becomes {phpcode}), copy & paste the coding from the Template Wizard from the index-code.txt file (have to save it someplace, otherwise you have to redo it in TGPX each time) and Bingo! TGPX compatible coding

Textpad - I have v5.3.1 but I see they're up to v8.1.2. Like I said, I started building websites on Notepad*, coding (very basic) HTML by hand. Textpad obviously has more bells & whistles than Notepad. I still use it basically every day to edit code that Namo can't, mostly the above TGPX workaround, as well as css files (yes, I do those by hand lol).

*FUN FACT: All the pages on link-o-rama.com have an extension of .htm and not .html because Windows 95** only allowed for 3 character filename extensions.

**FUN FACT II: There was also an 8 character limit on the filenames, which is why my main page is mlinks.htm and not mainlinks.htm - read about 8.3 filenames on Wiki if your REALLY FUCKING BORED.


Search & Replace - Another outdated program I use (they're on v7.3 and the one I have is v4.8 from 2004). It's really handy to do mass search & replaces, especially for blocks of text/coding that's on multiple lines. When all 150+ pages of your website were made doing a "Save As" from a 1 page template, it really does come in handy when you need to edit something on all of the pages



OK, now it's your turn, Skippy

I've been using Dreamweaver since it was introduced about twenty years ago. But I do far more than basic HTML and CSS coding.

Well. Yes you can edit and looks will change live until you refresh the page. It's very handy with css. You can edit the variables and see the results instantly. Then copy and paste

I use BlueGriffon which is a successor to Nvu / Kompozer and Mozilla Composer. It's free and open source. You can buy some add-ons to support the author. It's WYSIWYG, supports CSS and is actively developed by it's author. Mac, Windows and Linux versions are available.

I'm using Dreamweaver as well. I started using it a year before I started my Bachelor in Multimedia, approx 2000.

EditPad and Bridge/Photoshop as well. I have quite a collection of Actions in Photoshop which I call from inside Bridge.

Filezilla FTP. (Dreamweavers FTP isn't always that good)

OMG!!!! My login still works after all these years!

Well these days I mainly build mainstream sites for client using Joomla.

But for the manual stuff it's always been Dreamweaver and Notepad++

If I need to do scripting then I still use Perl and just write the code in Notepadd++

I use PSPAD as my editor for almost everything.

Use Chrome web developer tools for a lot of my debug of javascript and css.

OK, now it's your turn, Kinky

.
still owe you guys for NAMOing me... best fucking WYSIWYG I still rock the 5.5 the 9 sucked... but I was just about to ask you what you were using these days and i checked the site and NAMO ONE looks pretty sweet and cums with a free trial

Namo WebEditor ONE is available for MAC only for now.
and never mind that.

FUN FACT: I only drop an L when I am absolutely fucking forced into using it... Old Blue Screen 95, an AVS, and a free host that worked at every pic post EVER back in the days (except Danger's of course haha no web1000 assholes!) and don't forget FP Express


Did you know NAMO has the best search and replace ever... I didn't even know until Cleo told me about searching and replacing the smart way lightyears ago



FUNNY FACT I JUST MEMBER BERRIED: back when you guys recommended namo I was using Express because some tramp that slept with me one time then expected me to build her a fuggin complete site... so I was all here you go honey and gave her my FP 2000 disk... then my computer crashed and I needed the damn disk I believe her online nick translated to Any Cock Will Do... man the internet used to be a fun place before the twAtter took over...

These days it is notepad++ and Chrome Dev Tools.

Really want to have some wysiwyg like we had in the "old days" so I'm going to look at Brackets soon.

Most new sites are actually WP now, the old sites which were built more than 10 years ago I'm just maintaining with text editor. If I want to build new stuff I do it in WP.

However getting fed up with the slow speed and maintenance issues.

Considering going to static site generator like Jekyll or Gatsby but they seem so primitive.

Oh, and yeah my login here worked too after many many years!

I am going to admit in this private twitter DM webmaster forum that after 21+ years around adult websites that I still cannot make a page w/o a wysiwyg editor... I couldnt make a page with a single word on it much less link it to shit... please don't tell anybody guys it's sorta not embarassing I think it's funny a$ fuck


and just for shits and giggles I'll add that literally for years after using frontpage I had not idea there was a "center" button... i just used the space bar and mis-aligned shit up

I swear I earn a living at this $hit somehow

My 1st page was on angelfire.com & they gave you some default HTML coding when you started, so I do know basic stuff, but tables always gave me a hard time, so I started using FrontPage Express & then Namo when MS shitcanned it & it's been WYSIWYG ever since. I can look at the source of a page & guess most shit, but I wish I kinda wish I never went the easy route & continued to learn to code by hand.
