History
Web Architect was created by mirabyte software, a German-based ISV (independent software vendor). The software is the successor of the HTML editor SuperHTML, which was acquired by mirabyte in 2005. The intention of Web Architect is to provide a source code editor that is fully compliant with the latest Web development technologies and languages. The software therefore addresses the requirements for both professional Web developers as well as educational purposes.
Features
Web Architect supports HTML, HTML5, XHTML, and CSS/CSS3 as well as JavaScript and PHP editing in various revisions, along with powerful checking for standards and browser compatibility issues. Checking optionally covers a variety of levels, such as the strict W3C CSS specifications, to issues on a wide variety of browsers. Web Architect integrates with HTML Tidy, CSSTidy and W3C's online validation services.
The application has a Task-centric ribbon user interface which provides various wizards for common tasks like embedding pictures or creating hyperlinks as well as a code inspector tool.
Web Architect has built-in support for many JavaScript frameworks such as jQuery, MooTools, Prototype, Script.aculo.us, Dojo and YUI.
The integrated browser preview supports multiple rendering engines (Internet Explorer, Gecko and Webkit) and can also be used in combination with a local Web server.
Common text encoding formats such as ASCII/ANSI, UTF-8 and UTF-16 (Unicode) are supported as well as common line breaking formats.
Syntax highlighting is supported for PHP, Perl, Python, ASP, SQL, CSS, XHTML, XML, HTML, JavaScript, and VBScript with full IntelliSense support (automatic code completion).
Other features are the integarted code snippet management which is compatible to Microsoft Visual Studio and the built-in FTP/SSH client which allows editing files directly on a remote server.
