Hello Folks,
:?:
What are the main similarities & differences between Espresso and Coda? AND
What are the Pros and Cons of each app?I am considering purchasing one of these, but I am not that familiar with them.
Cheers

Im sure that wasnt very helpful at all LOL

February 23, 2009 at 8:12 pm #54250davesgonebananasMemberI am currently PC based, though I’m experimenting with running Leopard in VMware in order to trial Coda and Textmate. Having tried them I think I would switch to Mac in a second, but at the moment I just can’t afford it.
For my web dev I currently use Notepad++ with some addons (Explorer and FTP mostly).
Other PC people – what text editors do you use / recommend?
February 24, 2009 at 4:22 am #54265Rob MacKayParticipantI like dave, use notepad++ I used to use dreamweaver, but it wasn’t lightweight enough.

You can trial TextMate and Coda (Espresso is still in development), so have a good play with each before you buy.I agree. I am just trying to get feedback from people that have tested them already. Good feedback is very useful.
Anyone?March 23, 2009 at 1:18 pm #55055cgntoonartistMemberEspresso 1.0 is available!
http://macrabbit.com/espresso/
I am going to check it out.Cheers!
March 25, 2009 at 3:16 pm #54806falkencreativeMemberJust thought I should point out… Espresso is part of the MacHeist bundle (though it is the last app to be unlocked) and in previous years all apps were (as far as I know) unlocked. Looks like a good deal. I’m a big Coda fan, and switching to Espresso seems a bit unloyal of me, but I need to download the app and try it out. I did try it out when it was in Beta, and definitely found it lacking, but perhaps it has been improved in the 1.0. Ultimately though, I think the competition is good, and Coda can only grow stronger as a result.
April 1, 2009 at 2:22 am #55650cgntoonartistMemberCheck it out! I just got Espresso for only $39 plus other software.

April 1, 2009 at 8:24 pm #55703MattMemberAs of today, I’ll be using Espresso. I updated Coda today (after not updating in awhile) and got a nice message saying "Don’t pirate Coda… (et al)". I contacted Panic and they won’t honour my receipt of purchase. No problem with Transmit, though. For such a great company, they sure know how to ruin a day.
Textmate and Espresso will be on my dock for a while.

April 6, 2009 at 6:49 pm #55891ulrikeMemberdoes anybody know if there is any auto-formatting in espresso?
that is the one thing that bugs me in coda. I mean formatting whole (html) pages, like you can do in dw, preferrably with tag libraries.April 8, 2009 at 5:55 am #55961Rob MacKayParticipant"Matt" wrote:I got it sorted out.
