Noting the absence of Dreamweaver 21.4 in the current list of Adobe apps supporting Sequoia.

Has anybody run into significant issues of Dreamweaver on macOS 15 Sequoia?

 

(I'm reminded of the Muse / TypeKit fail....)

    So no one seems to have answered the original question: does Dreamweaver work in Sequoia?

    Most likely no.

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

    I'm not sure of the Muse / Typekit fail you are referring to. I never found Muse to be useful enough after an initial test to have it replace DW. There are no major issues that I have come across as a Mac user since the 14.0-14.2 issue of right click crashes.

    Muse no longer works. It seems that they "disconnected" TypeKit and somehow that made the app permanently crash. It was a quick tool to pull together responsive sites at the time. I used it when I had to do sites of a couple of pages. DW was used for projects that involved more code integration or you cared about the quality of CSS.

     

    I too can confirm that it works on 14.7. I'm more concerned about the upgrade to macOS 15. Adobe don't have an official position for Dreamweaver.

    • Sequoia is a newly released Apple OS.
    • Dreamweaver is in static development.  Nothing new is happening except occasional security updates. 
    • DW hasn't received any major updates since 2021. The current release version is 21.4.

     

    As backup, get an actively supported code editor to use alongside Dreamweaver.

    -- Codespaces (free, browser-based) - https://github.com/features/codespaces
    -- Notepad++ (free) - https://notepad-plus-plus.org/
    -- Nova (Mac only, formerly called Coda) - https://nova.app/
    -- Pinegrow - https://pinegrow.com/
    -- Sublime Text - http://www.sublimetext.com/
    -- Visual Studio Code (free) - https://code.visualstudio.com/
    -- Wappler ~ Visual Web App Builder - https://wappler.io/

    Hope that helps.
