Well, I've been looking for a while on the forum, but I don't see anything about it...
I think the link says enough in the header?

http://brackets.io/

Does anyone know more? Did I miss a great turn?

    Hi Everyone,

    I wanted to reassure you that Brackets' EOL does not impact Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver maintains its own fork of Brackets and any fixes or enhancements will be maintained on the fork that Dreamweaver has.

      I posted the original question, and it was not me who marked this answer as correct
      it's true that I expected another answer than this one... I expected an argumentation, not a rhetorical discourse that we can only accept blindly... in France the joke... would be something like,"Don't worry... we handle it"... in fact yes... I worry, I see the way Dreamweaver is managed... I worry...

      A response to no-one in particular BUT I'm intrigued why participants in this thread still use Dreamweaver IF they are so unsatisfied with its lack of clear road map and ever decreasing progress.........all I can assume is they feel its better than anything else they have tried............


      By @osgood_

       

      @osgood_  in fact , as far as I'm concerned, I use DW as a rather large management tool... it allows me to centralize the various projects I'm involved in, while also being able to work on code, use FTP, or GIT, but also reorganize various sets of folders (on a local server here at the agency), share with teams of integrators a certain number of code fragments, and use (I know it's comical) templates for full HTML/JavaScript sites 😉


      to code at the level of languages I use ST, at the level of encoding NotePad++, at the level of sorting and batch processing Bridge, for comparators and search Ultra Edit/Compare/Find/FTP, for automations Node, whatever... for the global management I still stuck with DW, I confess...


      You answered your own question, one of the few features worthwhile since CC 2015 is the GIT integration, Dreamweaver is OK for organising projects but for day to day to use, coding and especially if you do NOT use Bootstrap it's not up to the job. Dreamweaver CC 2015 is stable and the code editor doesn't suffer from the glitches or perfomance issues that many people have experiencec since Brackets was integrated in CC 2017, That has proved to be yet another total waste of development time...

       

      I'd take CC 2015 + GIT integration over the current Dreamweaver any day of the week... What does that say about the last 6 years of Dreamweaver development?

        thank you all for your answers, and for your participation in this thread.
        In fact I was throwing a bottle, here on this forum but also on the alpha, to see if someone from Adobe would come and bring an explanation, an information.
        Nothing, and that's distressing, even to the limit of disrespect.
        In any case, thank you for coming to bring your vision.

          When has anyone from Adobe discussed why and when? That's part of their ongoing downfall, unless they are prepared to offer their customers a definitive road-map and apply what they discussed in that road-map in an acceptable time then customers get p****d off and find other options. They are the architects of their own down-fall for being so silent and not being able to or wanting to touch base, for some reason, with their customers.

          Dreamweaver is done IMO .... They wasted all that development time too integrating Brackets ionto Dreamweaver and making a mess of it too....

          What will become of Dreamweaver if Brackets lowers the curtain?

          ==========

          @B i r n o u,

          Do you want the red pill or the blue pill?

           

          I liked Brackets a lot until Adobe let it languish.  And later when Brackets was integrated into DW and we began to see Code Mirror's limitations at formatting code properly, something had to give. So this move doesn't surprise me at all.  When Business Catalyst, Experience Manager, XD and Extend Script told customers to use an outside code editor (VS Code) instead of Adobe's own Brackets or Dreamweaver, the message was clear.  Adobe had lost faith in their own code editing tools.  Now that Brackets is axed, maybe Dreamweaver will last long enough to reach its 25th anniversary next year.  Or maybe that's just the "blue pill" talking.  🙂

          Oops, wrong link. This is the correct one for Monaco

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

          Hi @B i r n o u ,

          I have seen this coming for quite some time, a future version of Dreamweaver, will roll out with the Monaco Editor .

           

          This does not herald the end of Dreamweaver (yet).

            The fact that they tell users to move to a competitor's free app, with absolutely no mention of DW, says volumes.

            I'm not going to stand on the corner with a "The End is Nigh" sandwich board for DW or anything, but...

              Thats madness Brackets had the potential to become a great editor but once again Adobes lack of commitment to producing a competitive web development tool and poor decision making held it back. 

               

              Maybe once its open sourced someone will pick up the baton, give it a shiny new interface and tweak it about a bit, especially get rid of the Adobe propriotary code crap in live view (no serious developer wants to see or use that rubbish).

               

              In some respects its a much better editor than Dreamweaver for those that can code without the aid of 2 crutches. I would have paid a fee for it if it had evolved but nothing has been seriously updated in years, a familiar story when Adobe and web development tools are involved.
