Two came to mind for me.. #1 Bluefish.. "apt-cache show" includes the following description: ++++++++ BEGIN "apt-cache show bluefish" SNIPPET ++++++++ Description-en: advanced Gtk+ text editor for web and software development Bluefish is a powerful editor targeted towards programmers and web developers, with many options to write websites, scripts and programming code. Bluefish supports a wide variety of programming and markup languages and has many features, e.g. . - Customizable code folding, auto indenting and completion - Support for remote files operation over FTP, SFTP, HTTPS, WebDAV, etc. - Site upload and download - Powerful search and replace engine - Customizable integration of external programs such as lint, make, etc - Snippets plugin to automate often used code - Code-aware in-line spell checking - Zencoding or Emmet support - Bookmarks panel . but is still lightweight and fast. . For validation of CSS/HTML/XML documents you need csstidy, tidy, weblint and/or xmllint. For preview to work, you need a web browser that can view local files given to it on the command line. For PHP or Python bluefish supports php-codesniffer and pylint. Tools not suggested but supported are make, perl, php5-cli and java-compiler. ++++++++ END "apt-cache show bluefish" SNIPPET ++++++++ I've played with Bluefish a few times when it's first installed on new debootstraps. It initially sets itself as the default for some documents. My personal preference is to work freehand (e.g. mousepad for HTML and terminal window for python) when I play with development activities. #2 Seeing CMS (content management system) in this Debian-User thread reminded me of an email I've been receiving for a very long time: Concrete5 (Concrete CMS). Not a clue how I ever found it. Maybe it was built into some flavor of Linux while I was taste-testing various operating systems over the last two and a half decades. There were no query results for "apt-cache search concrete cms" for my main and experimental focused choice of package repositories. Alternatively, their official website is here: https://www.concretecms.com/ Wikipedia has this to say (likely presented with input from Concrete): "Concrete CMS is designed for ease of use, for users with a minimum of technical skills. It enables users to edit site content directly from the page. It provides version management for every page, similar to wiki software, another type of web site development software. Concrete CMS allows users to edit images through an embedded editor on the page. As of 2021, there are over 62,000 live websites that are built with Concrete CMS." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_CMS Cindy :) -- Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed! *
