Like WHAT exactly? You need to be more specific.

Dreamweaver is minimally maintained now. No NEW features have been added since 2021. It is what it is.

If you're looking for tools that do more, see my list below.

Thanks I have used and am using other solutions, but, I still like Dreamweaver and it's a shame that it is really not being developed anymore.

Before deciding if Dreamweaver is right for you, see my related post below.

If Dreamweaver CC starts misbehaving, try the following.

1. Toggle between Live/Design View (Ctrl + Shift + F11)

2. Save file (Ctrl + S).

3. Refresh screen (F5).

4. Validate code & fix all reported errors. Window > Results > Validation > check document.

5. Restore Preferences.

6. Shut everything down & restart computer.

Dreamweaver is basically a dead program walking.

Adobe decided some time ago, that DW will no longer receive new features or bug fixes, only current OS compatibility updates (those listed on the min reqs page), potential security patches, and third party library updates.

They haven't EOL'd it, but they're not actively developing it anymore.

I did't know that, bad decision. Dreamweaver is the best editor for me I use DW for PHP,CSS,HTML and JS every day, It's a just simple editor and native FTP connection help a lot to working online, also Dreamweaver has the best color scheme.
