Kompozer is a free web authoring tool that offers a complete set of features for WYSIWIG editing of web pages, web file management and performing other tasks. As envisioned by the Kompozer team, it’s a fully furnished system but easy to use, and ideal for non-technical people who want to produce a professional looking site without needing to learn coding.
Kompozer has many features that make it easy to create and manage CSS styles, and the WYSIWIG approach means you can see the web page’s appearance as you are editing it. The program is based on Gecko, the layout used for Mozilla, making it quick, easy and reliable. In addition, it has full support for JavaScript, XML and CSS so you don’t need a separate editor to use them.
Kompozer also uses XUL as its foundation, so it is expansive. It is also a standalone program and compact. As for creating pages, adding text is as easy as typing, and there’s FTP support for file management. You can also, from your site, edit files on the fly, and it is compatible with all the popular browsers today.
Kompozer relies on tabbed editing so it’s easy to work on multiple pages, and there is extensive support for templates, tables and forms. One of the really notable features here is its FTP site manager as it gives you a clear view of your site and has extensive filtering options. In addition, the application has a color picker, tabs, a detailed CSS editor and customizable toolbars. In short, Kompozer is a complete web authoring program.
