Frontpage => VS Code


What? FP let you do WYSIWYG html and then generated horrendous markup. VS Code is first and foremost a text editor.

More accurately Web Matrix => VS Code


Text editor + IDE

Projects evolve, Frontpage was a dead road. It evolved somewhat, but it finally came together with VS Code.

What is more popular now to develop web projects than VS Code?


Frontpage > Office SharePoint Designer > SharePoint Designer 2013 (now EOL)

Also there was Microsoft Expression Web, also EOL.

I’m remembering a deal Microsoft made with Adobe to stop making Microsoft Expression products in exchange for more platform support, or something. I forget the details.
