Title: Old Macromedia Software
Post by: MigMac on November 02, 2024, 07:19:57 AM
In view of www standards nowadays I guess the versions of Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Director and other Macromedia software  for OS9 are totally obsolete.

Could they be interesting to build/set up a site for intranet use only?

It depends, I'd say.

If we're talking Flash stuff, you're probably right.
If we're talking plain HTML pages I disagree. I think the whole "small web" movement and whatever runs under it looks exactly for the type of websites that Dreamweaver & others produce. You're aware of the movement?

I for one rejoice every time I see an individual hand-crafted website as opposed to the standard bootstrap look that every boring standard www page of today seems to have.

mh, interesting. I have a few projects in mind, I have to make a decision and stick to one...then, installing those might be useful. Thanks.

dreamwaver still works fine (and why wouldn´t it) and is my first choice (easily moving div´s around but custom coding.)

the other three are dead indeed.
