I have used Adobe DreamWeaver for many years. The software is one of the web creation packages in my web development software suite.
If you are looking for a web builder that allows you to create websites using HTML5 and CSS3, then this is a builder that I can recommend from my own experience.
DreamWeaver is cutting edge software for developing websites as well as mobile applications.
The fact that you can see the output as well as the code appeals to me.
In fact it is this flexibility that suits many people because it allows you to use the software according to your current skill level. If you have little web development experience you can use the WYSIWYG functionality of the software. If you are a coder you can write or edit the code directly.
I particularly like the multi screen interface.
