Dreamweaver is a combination of an IDE for PHP, ASP, ColdFusion and a WYSIWYG HTML/CSS editor. Additionally, it allows non-programmers to integrate several basic server-side scripting functions into their pages. Recent versions of Dreamweaver come bundled with an AJAX library (Spry) that features several pre-made widgets and other behaviors.

Adobe Dreamweaver (formerly Macromedia Dreamweaver) is a proprietary web development application originally created by Macromedia. It is now developed by Adobe Systems, which acquired Macromedia in 2005.

  • ActionScript
  • Active Server Pages (ASP)
  • ASP.NET
  • C#
  • Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
  • ColdFusion
  • EDML
  • Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML)
  • Extensible Markup Language (XML)
  • Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT)

  • Java
  • JavaScript
  • JavaServer Pages (JSP)
  • LESS
  • PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP)
  • SASS
  • Tridion CMS templating
  • Visual Basic (VB)
