Comments on: Recommended Dreamweaver Replacement – TextMate & CyberDuck http://hathology.com/dreamweaver-replacement/ Thu, 29 Jul 2010 15:28:26 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.1 hourly 1 By: Evan Agee http://hathology.com/dreamweaver-replacement/comment-page-1/#comment-11899 Evan Agee Sun, 31 Jan 2010 19:27:21 +0000 http://hathology.com/?p=109#comment-11899 I've been using the TextMate demo and it's an incredible piece of software. I've been trying to get used to the shortcuts but it's definitely hard after using DW for about 10 years. I think the primary feature of DW that I'm really having trouble doing without in TextMate is the tag completion for HTML. I've grown so reliant on the ability to finish typing the > of any HTML tag and DW automatically putting the closing tag in for me that it really sticks out in my mind every time I use TextMate. Does anyone know if there's a way to get TextMate to do the same thing? I’ve been using the TextMate demo and it’s an incredible piece of software.

So far I'm yet to find something that has: As good a syntax highlighting and code complete as Dreamweaver. And a built in ftp that I can setup for each site, and use keyboard shortcuts to upload. I have never actually used Dreamweaver in the design mode, as I've never seen the point... but as a fully integrated web dev text editing platform... it is still unbeatable... until I find it's replacement.

With TextMate and Cyberduck open simultaneously, you don't even have to go back to the Finder to drag files into Cyberduck for uploading. All you need to do is drag files directly from the side drawer in TextMate directly into Cyberduck. Voilá, upload starts immediately. You have, in my opinion, found the best combination.

I began developing using Dreamweaver, but about 2 months ago started using Cyberduck and TextMate. Between those two and Firebug I have had no wants for any of the "features" in Dreamweaver.
