Question

Cloud editor?

Many years ago I was excited when Adobe acquired Buzzword, but it seems to have been deprecated. I am a Mac user at home, and would love to be able to use Frame natively. I know, I know. Is there any thought to putting Frame in the cloud as an editor? Or Frame light? Making it platform agnostic and available in a browswer would be phenomenal. Maybe run AI across the code base and upgrade the IDE?

      You can run a Windows emulator. I've used both Parallels and VMware, but there are others. 

      I understand that VMware is free for personal use; Parallels has a 14-day trial.

       

      There was talk about bringing it out for the Mac (again) when Frame was rewritten as 64-bit, but I assume Adobe determined the user base was too small to warrent the conversion costs.

      Great idea—you might want to post it on Tracker: https://tracker.adobe.com/#/home.

       

      This is a user-to-user forum and any of us with any knowledge of what may be included in a future version of FrameMaker are under NDA.
