What is best Free Software to Create Web Pages?

What do you think is best Free Software to create web pages?

You need a good editor. There are a bunch out there. Emacs and Vim are the best, but may be more powerful than you need or are willing to learn. For a graphics editor, get the GIMP. Photo$hop does print stuff better, but GIMP is its equal for web graphics and custom software development.

You should also install ImageMagick for all its graphics utilities. (All graphics on my own site have been made with ImageMagick or Inkscape.) Inkscape should be your choice for vector graphics. It is probably a bit superior to the commercial products such as Illustrator, or Corel Draw, etc.. Don’t forget your development server. Go with Apache2 plus MySQL and PHP.

Various utilities are all available free; ssh, ftp (Firefox’s FireFTP is a very nice addon application.), wget (this is a spider, among other things. It can check that every link on your site is working, e.g..), scp, etc. Browsers from the four majors. I may have forgot something, but all suggestions are best of breed and free.

Design and graphics > GIMP or PhotoFiltre (no layers)
Coding > PSPad
And XAMPP to build/test it all locally.

I use PSPad on my EeePC and PortableApps stick. It has coloured syntax highlighting and FTP, which is enough to make me happy. It seems that when you made this post, I guess you werent very specific or something, because people went from saying to use dreamweaver to wordpress, both which do very different things. If i interpreted correctly, I think you ment more on the dreamweaver side, but I personally dislike dreamweaver, and use: http://www.microsoft.com/express/vwd/
