Question

Interesting times ahead

This should be an eye opening period in the coming few weeks - 'W' It's going to be interesting to see if the few die hard supporters of certain extensions around here and those that shout out for server-side tools to be re-introduced are going to abandon DW. It sounds a bit Muse like-ish on steriods, in any case the rhetric, as far as I can determine at the minute, it's not for coders, so it's probably going to suit the demographic of this forum quite well.

Happy days - the more the merrier.

    Just noticed the start date of the open beta for Wappler, 18th October.

    Guess what date Adobe Max begins this year

    (coincidence, or not?)

    Just a thought, but if the Dw forum questions are anything to go by, (especially those by none coders) then dmx are going to have to expand their current user forums to include more people with experiance of the product(s).

    I wonder if they have planned for that from day 1?

    Well that is just a natural progression. You will get some who will embrace the product, assuming its any good and become 'expert' The forum (I didnt know they had one) will just expand naturally to include the product.

    I don't know if it will have a coding environment in addition to the visual environment, if it does I may well take it for a spin if not then its just another product for amatuers, like muse or wicks or anyone of the other myriad of point and click junk you can name.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Personally speaking Ben, I don't think it will change anything to any degree, unless Dw is going to drop things like css designer, and live edit, (as both have not been updated in years, they may as well). Then again i don't know what the plans are for Dw in the future, and for all i know Adobe may discontinue it, or change it completely.

    The majority of paying Dw users are probably subscribing to CC for other apps, and not specifically for Dw. In which case Wappler will probably not interest them, as it would mean extra costs.
