Hi everyone,

I am very new to this program and I'm wondering if Dreamweaver can help create a desktop app, not a website. Is that possible? If it isn't are there any alternatives? I've been using Adobe XD and just realized that I need another application to code up an application or an actual developer to code it for me. Thoughts? Help would be greatly ppreciated. Thanks!

If it is a desktop app that you want to create, then you can use Capacitor

Wappler makes this very easy, especially for newbies. Start a new project

and you are ready to go

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

That's like saying I'm going to build a boat... What type of boat? Is the boat to be used on rivers, lakes or open seas?

Similarly, there are many different types of apps for various devices & on various operating systems. You need to be a lot more specific about what you have in mind.

As @Jon Fritz said, DW is merely a coding tool. Your success with any tool will depend on your coding skills and what you're trying to build.

You'll need a specialized developer.

DW can help you code whatever you want, for the internet, but even then you have to bring the coding knowledge to the party yourself. It's basically a glorified text editor with some site management functions, and third party bolt-on extras built into it.
