I learned Dreamweaver CS6 years ago. I have not found a good way to learn the CC version. I bought a Missing Manual, but it is a 2015 edition and not up to the task. There are so many changes I am forced to relearn. Where can I find it, and what is the best book to study the latest version of Dreamweaver CC? Please advise. I can learn this stuff from books. Trying to plod up the learning curve without one is not my way.

As quick start, see screenshots below. 

 

Define a site:

 

Add hosting server's FTP log-in credentials:

 

 

Create a Starter Template:

 

After saving new starter template, DW creates assets folders in your local site folder.

 

Edit content, add your own images. 

Save (Ctrl/Cmd + S)

Preview in browser (F12).

CS6 and CC 2021 are both code editors.  If you can work with code, you don't need books on how to use DW.  Apart from the addition of Bootstrap, Live view and some changes to the interface (most of which you can customize), Dreamweaver of today is very similar to CS6.
