WeBuilder 2020 for Windows

User Reviews

• Excellent program !

  Torsten Ernst (DL9GTB)December 29, 2015

  Pros

  I could write a lot of positives here. List all individually would take too long. :)

  Cons

  Unfortunately, there is no help in other languages, only in English. But I do not need or only very slightly.

  Summary

  The program is very extensive, yet easy to use. I use it in the German language. That works very well. You can use the editor immediately begin working even without the manual to read. The menus are very clear and I can everything set according to my wishes. Just great!

• The superb coding tools for web developer.

  mbedracAugust 16, 2015

  Pros

  I like autocomplete function, code snippets and especially project management. Very fast loading time, good working with multiple files, code coloring, everything on one click or shortcut.

  Cons

  It is not much, but search and replace could be done better, like in UltraEdit. My hot wish is custom autocomplete function.

  Summary

  It is light-weight piece of software with lots of coding tools for web developer. It suits all my needs for years now.

• I bought Webuilder in 2006 and I still use it today.

  Nan72January 27, 2014

  Pros

  If you feel WYSIWYG is an insult to your capabilities then this editor is for you.

  Cons

  To be honest, I have yet to find any cons and I have used this product for over seven years now at least a few hours each week.

  Summary

  I run a custom content site for a video game and have used this editor from the beginning. You do not have to be a professional web site builder in order to use this product and for the price you can't beat it.

• Very handy tool for writing html, css, vbscript code...

  mbedracMay 28, 2012

  Pros

  -not so many functions like Dreamweaver (that it is good not bad) -clean user interface -intellisense code finishing -good work with projects -code snippets -good solution for open tabs

  Cons

  -some minor bugs, but nothing horrible

  Summary

  For those who like hand coding it is fantastic tool. Personally I like clean interface with many helpful tools. I tried Dreamweaver and other "pro" web developers, but they are all like swiss army knifes, a lot of functions, but you really need a good knife.

• the best editor for Javascript

  jdkasinskyDecember 20, 2011

  Pros

  it's the best editor for Javascript it shows the list of all your objects, properties and methods at the left. You can find any part of the code you need it allows to compress objects and functions, so you can hide the code you don't need to see while coding it allows to check the code with JSLint it's extremely configurable

  Cons

  the JSLint checker is still not fully integrated

  Summary

  The most perfect editor for Javascript. I'm pretty sure is great for other languages as well, but while is easy to find editor for any language, it's hard to do it for Javascript. This is the one.

• Straighforward, efficient, powerful

  xavier75008April 5, 2011

  Pros

  Simple and efficient - yet powerful. I have been using Webuilder for more than a year with a lot of satisfaction. Low price Not wysiwyg per se, but allows immediate check of html / css by switching seamlessly between code and visible result

  Cons

  A version for Mac OS ..... ? Support of HTML 5 ..... ?

  Summary

  Choosing an editor to develop html / php / css is a big decision, as this type of software is heavily used. Webuilder is clearly an excellent choice !

• It is in my opinion the best coding/programming program

  mike81092December 28, 2010

  Pros

  - Customizable Auto-Complete - Non-Bloated, Fast & Reliable - Easy On The Eyes (in comparison to notepad++) - Coding Preview even for scripting languages - 'Library' feature which is amazing feature to save common snippets of code (elaborated Below).

  Cons

  - Stopped responding on me (temporarily only**, Did not shutdown) a few times but far less then any other program for coding/editing I used. - I would enjoy a little more graphical interface but if It gained that it might become bloated. -

  Summary

  Sorry for the long review everyone, but I want to make sure everyone knows all the features of this program. I searched for a long time to find the 'right' coding/programming program for me. Complete Pros - Customizable Auto-Complete. You can turn on certain types of auto-complete (for example, for different languages or areas of a language) - Non-Bloated, Fast & Reliable - Easy On The Eyes (in comparison to notepad++ and other similar programs) - Fast Start Up - Coding Preview even for scripting languages - 'Library' feature which is amazing feature that would save just about every web developer tons of time. -- The 'Library' is where you can set up 'Snippets' of code and easily insert that snippet into any document. This is very useful, for example, I created snippets for differant scripts. For example, A jquery Slideshow, I setup 2 snippets, one for the coding for the slideshow and one for the stylesheet and script tags for the head section.. - Ability to create templates to be used for new documents. Also a very good selection of pre-setup templates come with it - Easy to use and graphically appealing tabs for multiple open documents - The interface has some advanced drag and drop capability enabling you to organize the entire program to fit your needs. Even the main menus can be customized - You can enable various toolbars for different languages. You can then choose to have those toolbars always display or display only when you are working in a specific document or area of a document. -- For example, you can choose to display the CSS toolbar only when you are in a .css document or working in a style="" tag or inside a <style></style> tag. This is great for keeping the program un-cluttered to avoid confusion and searching for features. - Advanced Shortcut customization which is surprisingly un-buggy in comparison with notepad++, dreamweaver, and aptana studio. - Fairly advanced Find And Replace function in relation to dreamweaver, notepad++, aptana, etc.. You can easily find and replace over multiple lines with all the standard features and many more you won't find easily elsewhere. - Great Bookmarking Features - Built-In FTP program which is fast and reliable. Also built in is a very functional file explorer. - Built-In Clipboard history is very easily accessible at any time and is immensely helpful - Built-In CSS, PHP, & HTML reference are very helpful. - Built-In HTML Tidy with tons of features - Built-In HTML & CSS Validation - SQL Database Explorer - Project management with ftp management There are many many more features to this program, but above are a good starting point. Complete Cons - Stopped responding on me (temporarily only*) a few times but far less then any other program for coding/editing I have used (even notepad++). Also it never led to an unexpected shutdown which is a plus. - I would enjoy a little more graphical interface but if It gained that it might become bloated. - Doesn't look like there is too much of a plugin contributing community unless I am missing it. - There are always little bugs and cons in good programs but surprisingly, I have noticed WeBuilder to be very responsive and reliable.

• Hard to beat if you don't need WYSIWYG

  tcarnevaleJuly 4, 2010

  Pros

  Versatility, Flexibility. Very complete: HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, SQL, FTP - all with top notch features. Very supportive and responsive staff. Quick to add enhancements.

  Cons

  Not WYSIWYG.

  Summary

  If you do any web development, this is a product to consider. Customizable so that you can tailor an integrated environment for yourself. Has almost all the features you could want. (Besides WYSIWYG, which may in fact be a disadvantage, lacks graphics support and not much else.) Again, definitely worth consideration.
