If you’re a web designer or developer and you haven’t been living under a rock this week (or on tight deadlines and trying to stay off twitter).. then you’ve probably already seen the screencast walkthrough of Macaw. Quick Links: Macaw website Sneek Peek @attasi on twitter @gesusc on twitter It’s generated a fair bit of interest from people in my twitter stream, however the under discussed, yet arguably the most impressive feature of the entire video really comes at the last second – the code. This is the first time i’ve seen a WYSIWYG style editor that is trying to deal with modern issues, like responsive design, that produces decent markup. I’m sure that in practice there is a workflow that would need to be learned in order to get Macaw to actually generate clean semantic markup – however this is a massive leap in the right direction.

What is it? So, I’ve actually been using this for aaages. But the other day, someone looked at my laptop and noticed my editor and asked what it was.

Boring conversation about how i’d skinned it to look like Brackets.io ensued… The end result is, i’ve made it into a github repo – so see if other people are interested in changing how sublime looks. Basically my problem was always the same with Sublime as it was with Eclipse – it’s tabs are all big and curvy and i don’t like them.
