Hello, i was looking for a wysiwyg html editors i could use for my personal website, perferrably just as a simple open source desktop program on linux (though anything else is fine). i DID find something called KompoZer but i was wondering if there’s any other ones, thanks
Honestly, Dreamweaver is still pretty good. It’s not as WYSIWYG as like some of the old school front-ends, but it does a pretty good job. If you get some templates and have at least a cursory understanding of xml and css syntax, you’ll do okay.
As others recommended, using a web browser to edit is actually pretty cool, especially in Firefox. I myself use Wordpress in the browser instead, which has such a builtin editor.
I'm extremely happy sharing my testimony, Dr. Excellent helped me change my husband’s heart to love and want me again. I was heart broken when my husband left me and moved to California to be with another woman. I felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. I tried to be strong just for the kids but I could not control the pains that tormented my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because I was really in love with my husband. I have tried many options but he did not come back, until i met a Relationship Coach that directed me to Dr. Excellent a spell caster, who helped me to bring back my husband after 11hours. Me and my husband are living happily together again, This man is powerful, Contact Dr. Excellent for any kind of spiritual problems or any kind of spell or relationship problems he is capable of making things right for you with no side effect., Here his contact. WhatsApp him at: +2348084273514 "Or email him at: Excellentspellcaster@gmail.com , His website:https://lovespellonline.godaddysites.com
Chromium, Firefox… if you open the dev tools, you can edit everything, with it showing in the browser in real-time (WYSIWYG).
Firefox Developer Edition has some extra tools and debugging modes, but some are redundant if you’re using VS Code.
If you’re looking for a Dreamweaver-like thing, where you could drop elements with minimum HTML writing… you may want to check Seamonkey Composer.
For a simple personal website though, I’d recommend using a markdown editor, then either export it through a template, or have a template interpreter on the site, like GitHub Pages.
(I don’t know why jamstack has taken over that site, but the list itself seems to be intact.)
Not really taken over, more just a rebranding. Both are owned by netlify, started off as a list of static site generators you could use with netlify (aka all of them they could find) but then they just rebranded the site and gave it a fancy name like you have with all the other web stacks you have these days.
Have made numerous mockups for devs, as a PM, that way.
When you have one style sheet for users and admins, you get creative.
At the time, building it wasn’t my problem. Explaining what needed to be built was, and the devs in question were not native speakers of same language I was.
Show, not tell, works quite well IFF you recognize immediately when it’s needed.
Copy the thing you want from where it is, paste it where it needs to be, and tweak the (easily recognisable by any human, cmon) verbiage.
I’m not a particularly visual person, so dev tools was quite useful for that. “${foreach} state, ${foreach} county, ${foreach} postal code,” here is the expected UI both expanded and not, beats hell out of trying to spec out what amounts to the better part of an RFC, especially when I am not the one actually writing the code and also not the one who came up with the straight up crazy schema.
Schema created years ago, and there’s only money to add this UI to replace an UPDATE WHERE that the boss decided he didn’t like because he didn’t “get it” and couldn’t personally do it if ever needed (literally no world where it would be needed, and boss didn’t understand the geo that made the whole thing necessary, but…. That’s life.)
(Edit: created, not ‘creates’, and FreeMarker is brutal. Things that binary work/do not work belong in code, not templates. Templates should be as tolerant as is sane given a use case. Boss wouldn’t know HTML or a variable if I whacked him over the head with a variable (length walking staff))
Check out this listing - BlueGriffon might be up your alley, for ease of use, but kompozer used to be the classic replica of Dreamweaver from Windows. Not sure about NetBeans, but it might be good, and can’t speak to the rest.
I didn’t know that Slashdot added something like this… just googled for WYSIWYG FOSS editors to make sure, saw that BlueGriffon’s site had a farewell message, and checked the GitHub.
FF Dev and Seamonkey, I have installed along VS Code 🤷
