I think it’s pretty obvious I felt that Coda had many more strengths. I’m sure there are other things to add to this list, but it’s the list I sent my employer. For example, I’ve since learned to love Coda’s Find/Replace, it’s just a whole different paradigm.

Better and more helpful predictive code hintsĪt first, I’ll admit, I was still running over to Dreamweaver to accomplish certain things that, at the time, I didn’t realize Coda could do-or more importantly, I didn’t realize there was a better way to do it.

Awesome visual representation of my Sites.

split file editing (edit more than one file at a time, or reference the one while working on the other.).

DW sync takes *forever* – the 2 points above are the better solution.

Can publish each file with a single click.

Remembers and displays which files have been edited and need to be published.

Remembers which files were open from site to site, even after closing the app.

So I started keeping a list of things I liked about it, and things I missed from Dreamweaver.

Coda 2 vs brackets license#

If I was going to ask my employer to purchase a license for me, I was going to have to make a good case, so it had to be really convincing. But I decided to fire up the 14 day trial. I learned about Coda from another web developer/designer that I follow on Twitter, Obviously, I was skeptical at first. There are other programs I gave a shot, but it just seemed like they were all doing some things really well, but others really bad. After giving these, and others a shot, I would always find myself switching right back to Dreamweaver just to get the job done in an efficient matter. Only Textmate is missing even more of the features listed above. As mentioned above, I also feel that Eclipse is really great for back-end programmers, but falls short for front-end. Granted, Dreamweaver is also bloated, but not nearly as bad. Slap Aptana on top of that and you’ve got yourself a mess. Subversion integration was a plus, but not a requirement.įrankly, Eclipse is a huge, bloated piece of nightmare for installing and running.Quick access to projects (The ability to save “Sites” and jump between them without ever using the “Open” dialog).Synchronization feature, or at least some way of tracking which local files are different than those on the server (surprisingly few editors have this as a feature).(Many, like Eclipse, are really good for back-end dev, but downright suck at front-end. Rich HTML, CSS, and Javascript support with good shortcuts and autocompletion.Built in SFTP (many editors only have FTP, if anything at all).There are several features that Dreamweaver has that I was always very particular about when looking for a new tool.

So much so, that it has taken me quite some time, and quite a bit of trial and error, to actually end up leaving it behind. I really love the shortcuts they’ve built in and found myself developing rather quickly because of them. Frankly, I rarely if ever, was using the Design view in Dreamweaver and I mostly used it as a text based editor. I know what you are thinking, “what took you so long?” Well, the truth of the matter is, I think Dreamweaver gets a bad wrap, just because of the WYSYWIG stigma. I’ve recently abandoned Dreamweaver as my primary web development platform.
