The result is, that for a long time, Coda has not been able to give developers the ‘single-window web development’ dream it promised.ĭoing modern web development with Coda means also having several other tools, such as: Grunt or CodeKit (for checking, compiling, concatenating and minifying pre- and post-processor language files), git or Tower (for adequate git support with remote repository access to GitHub/Gitlab), and Dash (for readily accessible documentation on all modern libraries and frameworks). And there are a multitude of frontend frameworks that give the developer a great starting point, and save them from having to ‘reinvent the wheel’ on every project: Bootstrap, Foundation, UIKit, Semantic UI, etc.

Developers no longer use ‘vanilla’ HTML/CSS/JS, preferring higher-level languages and tools that add many more features, and make code simpler and more maintainable: HAML, PUG, LESS, SASS, CoffeeScript, TypeScript, etc.

Nowadays, even if you’re a lone developer working on your mother’s website, you’d be crazy not to be using version control – and GIT has won the war, with a multitude of feature-full, cloud-based services offering free public and private repository hosting (such as GitHub and Gitlab).
That was the programming workflow for which Coda was built. If you were a *very* advanced developer you might have been playing around with php frameworks, or even ruby on rails, and might even be using SVN to version-control your work. For more complex projects, you might setup a MySQL database. If you forgot your syntax, you’d google it, or reach for a printed manual. The usual process then involved coding HTML/CSS/JS by hand, and uploading files to your staging server via ftp. The process and technologies involved in developing websites has changed quite a lot since Coda 1.0 came out. It’s definitely my favorite Panic product, and looking forward to it’s next stellar release! Hoping to see / hear some updates soon though on Coda. Again, in their defense, Panic has been neck-deep in other endeavors lately, and attentions have been diverted a bit. There’s been a bit of a gap in major releases in Coda, and I’m hoping to get back onto a better release cycle going forward. I see the advances that some of these other IDE’s have been making (love multiple cursors in Sublime, and the rich extension eco-system of atom/brackets…), there’s a tinge of jealousy. I’ve been using it since it’s original release along with many other Panic products. With that said, I’m just an over-zealous Coda fan.
I would whole-heartedly recommend Coda, but there’s a 14 day free-trial that you can test out so you’re not taking my word for it. Coda is a great IDEO, and I still haven’t found one that I like as an alternative after trying brackets, Atom, Sublime and a bunch of others. I don’t normally see the Panic fold reply in the blog. Don’t let the lack of response dissuade you from a purchase.
