    Default Re: Alternative - Addition to Xara Web Designer

    Have not tried the others but CoffeeCup Site Designer is really good for fully responsive sites but it's nowhere as quick or easy at creating sites in as Xara. The great thing about Xara is being able to work with graphics and web layout in the same program. With CC and other tools you are usually split between working in a graphics program and the web program. But yeah I would recommend CC Site Designer too.

    I'm not sure how much development is still done on it.
    Still working on this btw and have made it compatible with CC Site Designer now too for upcoming version. Lot's of other improvements coming too in next releaese.

    Xtom is right, you have the freedom to design websites anyway you want, not like others in columns and rows and grids, so boring and every website looks the same. Yak. I have been using it for over 2 decades and love it. The only time I would use another program would be for database but that too seems to be around and I can hire any programmer to make one for me.

    and resize your screen to a small one, it works fine. I know you do not like chrome, but go to that link and right click and then inspect, at the top select mobile resolution. Works for me.
    right, but the site you reference xara.ecwid.com is not a Xara site. it is an ecwid site and it is responsive. that is the functionality that i need.

    Xara is not responsive. Good luck on your search, let me know what you settle down with.

    a guy runs a simple hobby website for years
    he has great seo because of his content
    now google tells him he has to buy an ssl certificate or his seo will plummet
    that's progress
    If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.

    Search and security are of course two different subjects but in this case seem to be meeting one another.
