New features summary

Paul Trani, Senior Product Evangelist, Creative Cloud, provides an overview of the new features in Adobe Dreamweaver CC.

CSS Designer

Highly intuitive visual editing tool that helps you generate clean web-standard code. Using this tool, you can quickly view and edit styles that are relevant to a particular context (or page element). Apply properties such as gradients and box-shadows with just a couple of clicks.

Synchronize Dreamweaver settings with Creative Cloud

Store your files, application settings, and site definitions on Creative Cloud. Log on to Creative Cloud and access these files and settings from any machine whenever you need them.

You can set up Dreamweaver to automatically synchronize the settings with the cloud. Or, you can do an on-demand synchronization whenever required using the toast notification (click in the Document toolbar) or the Preferences > Sync Settings dialog box.

Modern platform support

Author projects using HTML5/CSS3, jQuery, and jQuery mobile frameworks. Develop dynamic pages in PHP.

jQuery widgets

Drag-and-drop accordions, buttons, tabs, and many other jQuery widgets in your documents. Make your websites more interesting and engaging with jQuery effects (Windows > Behaviors > Effects).

Simplified user interface

The Dreamweaver CC user interface is modernized with fewer dialog boxes. The improved interface helps you develop websites more efficiently with intuitive context menus.
