Freeway Alternative - The Elephant In The Room

Hi Thomas and to everyone else that’s been commenting on this thread.
Thomas, I have to admit every time I launch Coda I am finding that I am not that comfortable with it either. I know it’s just a personal taste but I just don’t feel at home with it. Although I am sure its a great piece of software. Espresso is the same for me as well… although I loved CSSEdit.
I have been testing the latest Dreamweaver Beta and I have to say if you can understand the code a little then I think for those people that are not put off by a subscription base application then it may be a viable alternative to Pinegrow which also looks good to me as well.

As far as I am seeing… there are going to be two distinct directions which Freeway users will ultimately need to take… One is the direction taken by blocks, sparkle etc which more akin to a drag and drop but limited control and the other is the code editor route which has a decent user interface (for those that just don’t like using a pure editor like TextMate or Sublime).

There is no Freeway comparable application, so at the moment It’s looking a bit grim for those that can’t make the jump to a more advanced but ultimately scarier application, because for the first time in a little while, an application is not being superseded by something better, and therefore people are going to have to compromises on what they can do, or change!!
