A quick review of my love of using Coda - the recommended (by me) Mac Web Development Tool of choice from Panic*
I had been using Aptana for some time, but I became increasingly frustrated at its constant updates, which slowed the whole app down. Not good when deadlines are looming.
Twitter
So after throwing the question out to the Twitter universe, @suzyjohnston & @michaelfbradley both wholeheartedly recommended Coda, and on the last day of my 14 day trail I can safely say I love it!
Key points
- Split screen ability to view CSS & xhtml at same time
- built in Web Standards Compatibily check
- ease of upload to the web straight from app in 1 simple click (Goodbye Cyberduck, hello less RSI strains!)
- built in browser preview with live view of scripts and flash
- beautiful,intuitive, simplistic interface
- virtually no crashing (Dreamweaver CS3 take note)
I'm a very happy camper indeed, I just love when software works like it ought to :D
Thankyou Panic!

Anyone else love Coda? Or are there better app's/ tools, out there for the Mac + web development? If so do share! :)
