There seems to be a trend for webdesign tools that integrate all the steps involved in creating, testing and publishing into a nice, clean workflow. Coda is one of these tools and Espresso from macrabbit is another contender and set to launch in November.
If you’re into using WYSIWYG tools such as Dreamweaver or RapidWeaver for your web development, Espresso is probably not for you. You need to know how to write HTML and some knowledge of CSS won’t hurt either. Although chances are good that Espresso’s CSS editor will be just as cool as macrabbit’s CSSEdit, which makes editing CSS a breeze, and a fun one at that.
I’ve just signed up for the current private beta of Espresso. If I’m accepted I’m going to give it a serious spin with some of my web projects. Otherwise, I’ll just have to wait until the final version comes out, which shouldn’t be too far away anyway. Look out for an extensive review of Espresso here once it’s out.
