[Year 12 IT Apps] Web Authoring Software

[Adric Gardner]

Yes, thanks for that Brett.

 

I've looked at Kompozer (and seamonkey, coffeecup and some others)

 

I would strongly recommend people take a look at Web Plus (by Serif) from a
design perspective 
(There is a free starter version available).

 

However, I come back to my main question.  Would a web based tool such as
Weebly or Yola be considered a Web Authoring Tool for the sake of the study
design?

 

Cheers,

 

Adric

Weebly is probably the easiest thing around if students were creating, say,
an online help site. ie if the focus was the content and not the creation.
If you were looking to focus on  actual web design then I use Kompozer, it's
FOSS, super easy to use and deceptively powerful with just a little
css/html/javascript knowledge. It also contains none of the
ExpressionWeb/Dreamweaver extras that I never use anyway

Hi Guys,

 

I'm considering a move away from Dreamweaver next year as I believe it is
overly complicated for what they need to achieve.

 

I'm considering a move to something like www.yola.com which is an online
drag and drop website creation tool.

 

What I wanted to know is whether other people see this as a 'Web Authoring
Tool' for study design purposes like I do.

 

Cheers,
