As a GoLive user/trainer, it’s been incredibly frustrating watching Adobe just sort of sit there with its knockout powerhouse of a product, and did relatively nothing to market it or grow its community, save for field staffers Adam Pratt’s and Lynn Grillo’s road presentations. ![]() But Dreamweaver was available for Windows (as well as Mac) long before GoLive was, as I recall, and in retrospect I guess this was a telling blow.īut I think Adobe’s laissez-faire attitude to the web developer market was the real telling blow over the long run. They added a decent number of features to it over the years, many of which are still unmatched in Dreamweaver (which we sometimes use, reluctantly, when forced). ![]() As a long-time GoLive user (we’ve developed dozens of successful commercial sites with it), this is depressing but not surprising news.ĭepressing, because I can’t imagine trying to maintain and modify some of the sites our studio is responsible for without GoLive-only features like the site window, In/Out links palette, smart objects with variables, save for web, and more.Īdobe bought GoLive from a third-party developer when it was the premiere web authoring program for the Mac, before Dreamweaver was even a speck in its daddy’s eye.
