Panic updates Coda to version 1.5; one-window web development for Apple Mac
Thursday, August 28, 2008 - 03:27 PM EDT

"Panic this week update to Coda, its web development application. According to the company, Coda is designed to bring all the functions of web page creation into a single window. Users have the ability to edit text, transfer files, preview pages and adjust SQL all -- and more -- in one interface. The developers goal was to take a complicated workflow of web development and integrate it into one interface, saving both time and effort," MacNN reports.

"Coda 1.5 adds a number of major new features, including fully integrated source control with Subversion, find and replace across multiple local files, easier-than-ever text clips with groups, a user-customizable bookshelf and improved AppleScript," MacNN reports.

"The update is available for free for existing customers or new customers can purchase the software for US$100, or $90 for owners of the Transmit [FTP Client] software," MacNN reports.

I's a joke - Use Rapid Weaver or die!

I have been using Zend Studio for what seems like forever. I tried Coda but it seemed to me to be a little too basic.

Since Zend Studio ruined a good thing when they went to version 6.0.1 (Eclipse) I may give this another chance.

A warning to all who are thinking of updating to Zend Studio 6: it is the Windows Vista of web development tools. The Eclipse bolt-on crap ruins it. And if you're running it on Mac, forget about speed.

that looks way easier to use than the old bloated piece of crap Dreamweaver is now

i use it. Good app. The one and only thing i am missing from jEdit is code folding. It would be so much easier!

The improvements sound really great. Two web development tools updated in the same week (the other: BBEdit 9.0)!

Tried coda and it's good, but not perfect nor 100% intuitive -- but it is pretty good in delivering on its promise and very good for its age.

I tend to use Textmate. It's probably the most fully featured text editor and has a ton of bundles but coda seems pretty tempting. Only thing is I have tried tons of other editors and never managed to stick to any.

Still worth a look. We'll see!

@Doom and Gloom: Rapid Weaver is fine if you're comfortable letting someone else write your code and do your design work for you. This may be just fine for a newbie or an amateur needing a website.

However, if you're a coder doing it for a living, using Rapid Weaver is like trying to play a piano concerto on a toy piano. Coda lets real coders do their work without getting in the way.

So, is this the last version of it?
