Meaning of Web Design Package
A web Design package is a computer program used to create, edit and update web pages and the websites. The purpose of such a program is to make it easier for the designer to work with page and site elements through a graphical user interface that displays the desired result, typically in a WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) manner, while removing the need for the designer to have to work with the actual code that produces the result (which includes HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and others).
Examples of Web Design Packages are;
- Adobe Dreamweaver,
- Net Objects Fusion (which are commercial) ,
- Note pad++
- Amaya,
- WebPlus X4
- Antenna Web Design Studio 3
- iweb
- Website Pro 4
- Microsoft FrontPage
