Title: NVU Web Authoring System
Post by ReeBop on Nov 20th, 2005, 4:53am
This program has been out since summer, but I think it needs to be mentioned here.  Nvu is based on the Gecko / Mozilla browser and is open source.  Here is a screenshot:

It does seem to have some good features there from that screenshot.  Being a Dreamweaver user and yet considered a power Linux user, this is something for me to look at.  I did try out some web page design with it and I thought it was lacking a bit in tools and the way it organized those tools.  I could almost accomplish what I wanted to do, but it took me double the amount of time.  Maybe if this was my first program I used and wasn't so used to Dreamweaver, I would be much faster with it.
I think I will give it a try with my new website design that I'll be working on after the Forum is upgraded.  The major selling points are that it's free and it runs on Linux.  Can I finally replace my Windows tools with Inkscape, Nvu and GimpShop? We'll see.
Here is the homepage to find out more about NVU:
