My top Mac apps for web development
May 13th
I’ve seen many blogs from colleague web developers sharing their top 10 mac apps or something like that, I always find it interesting to read what applications they use. So here I am sharing my top applications I use daily for my work.
I am not putting the apps in a Top # order but in order how many times I use it, or the importance for the app to me.
Coda
Coda is in my eyes the holy grail of web development apps in the genre Text editors, but it’s so much more then just a text editor. Many people prefer Text Mate, I’ve tried that too, but once using coda u never go back. Hehe. Coda is lightweight and fast to use, It has build in Sites to save your sites obviously, very easy to use. And it has a build-in preview option, but I don’t use that, I prefer switching to Firefox. What I do use is the build in Books option, this lets you view for instance the PHP documentation, and you can easily search the books. For more information about all functionalities of coda like Sites, Preview, CSS, Terminal and Books visit their website.

They even made a widget for it, and a Firefox plugin but since i never use Dashboard i prefer the search plugin they made
