Web Development Apps



UESstudio is a capable editor and the biggest benefit is the techsupport. Many other good things which will attract developers to use it are the speed, light and the agileness. Just complicated one project and I feel it is one of the most capable software to run the application. Never used other software but I have read about poster and colorzzilla, these also give good performence.

Not sure why, but I have decided to try and compile a list of commonly (and uncommonly) used applications to aid web developers. Hopefully it will benefit all developers with applications you may have never seen nor known existed - Anyone is welcome to post there favorites, ill start with a couple of mine...

Applications

UEStudio - This is my daily use application of choice for HTML, CSS, PHP & JS. UEStudio is the full IDE type editor with more features then I care to count. It has a little brother called Ultraedit-32 which I use as well (UEStudio @ Home, Ultraedit32 @ Work). Both feature completel syntax highlighting, auto-indenting, projects (UEStudio has CVS/SVN for projects), ftp/sftp and for UEStudio it has popup tips for PHP syntax/functions, etc. All around, an excellent program well worth the money.

Photoshop - Need an explanation?

DBDesigner/Mysql Workbench - Recently DBDesigner turned into MySQL workbench (and now they charge I believe), there is also an app called DBDesigner Fork that is free. These programs are a GUI wrapper for creating database structures, relationships, etc. They are a great way to build and store database structures for complex projects, they easily generate SQL queries & reverse engineer existing databases.

Putty - SSH client...

Cygwin - All the things you love about the *nix shell in a windows environment. Command prompt on hardcore steroids.

Firefox Add-ons

Firebug - Get it, seriously.

Live HTTP Headers - This addon allows you to see the headers for all GET & POST requests, useful for debugging, scraping and a variety of other things.

ColorZilla - Gives you an eyedropper to easily select colors on a page and get the hex/rgb values.

Poster - This addon lets you create arbitrary POST/GET requests on a URL. This is great for testing web services where you will be posting shit without having to create a form. etc.

MeasureIt - Lets you drag a ruler across the screen to give you pixel dimensions for your selected area.

Adobe AIR Apps

It doesnt seem like people have jumped on the Adobe AIR train yet, but please do - Its worth your time to checkout the apps people have been creating especially since so many of them are directly related to web design. Im not going to list them here because I thought Web Resources Depot did a great job making there own list, but here 27 AIR apps for developers... 27 Adobe AIR Applications - Handy For Web Designers

Hey there, gorgeous friends. I always enjoy searching for such threads and learning from them. Keep it up, buddy!
First, I use Ps to design my websites! You know the Chrome Faces Ninja extension; you don't have to use the inspector to recognize fonts or their size on the website.
