dreamweaver

Is there a compelling reason to use Dreamweaver with Drupal?

Not sure how they interact with each other?

I am posting this idea to see if there is any interest in a Dreamweaver + drupal preso? The focus would be how to intergrate DW into your workflow, how this will help speed up your workflow plus more benefits. Looking at the css, theming and php and js abilities as it relates to drupal. Looking at the database connectivity within Dreamweaver to extend the useability could possibly be a second topic.

I would be willing to present a demo in May (westside meeting) if there is interest.

Is anyone using the new Drupal editing features in Dreamweaver CS5? I watched a video that was impressive, but it was based on editing a Wordpress site in Dreamweaver CS5. I am wondering if there is any information out there about using it on a Drupal site; videos, tutorials, podcasts, articles.

The third article in my Drupal series for Adobe.com is out now. This article covers Drupal Zen Sub-Themes, including Dreamweaver tip(s) when working with Drupal themes.

"When asked why I would recommend the Zen theme versus a core theme such as Garland, I answer, Zen was built to be a seed for your tree—you plant the seed, water it, and watch it grow! Garland looks nice, but is not documented well and has custom page template code that should not appear elsewhere. In short, Garland is just not right as the basis for a theme; the Zen theme is."
