There are complex reasons behind my development of this. To be honest, I don’t think the editing functionality of this tool is particularly useful. I believe the real-time preview and element selection features are the ones that offer broader utility. I am considering making the editing feature disabled by default and allowing it to be enabled through settings in the future.

I don’t think it was meant to criticize your work :)

It’s just fun to see that we (here : you) are reinventing tools that everyone used 20 or 30 years ago.

I remember making my first websites in Dreamweaver. I remember it being hated by "pro" developers but this plus an FTP client (which was integrated IIRC) was enough for teenager me to be live on the internet.

The nostalgia hit me, I remember before Dreamweaver, there was Netscape Composer, W3C Amaya, and similar software.

How is Dreamweaver these days?

I came here to comment about Macromedia Dreamweaver (at the time I used it). It was an ok software for the time. Acceptable WYSIWYG.

Bring FrontPage back! ;)
