Nvu (pronounced N-view, for a „new view“) makes managing a web site easy as 1-2-3

Now anyone can create web pages and manage a website with no technical expertise or knowledge of HTML.

Nvu is based on Gecko, the layout engine inside Mozilla; it’s a super-fast, very reliable, standards conformant engine maintained on a daily basis by a wide community of developers.

Its remarkable support of XML, CSS and JavaScript offers the best authoring platform on the market. Its architecture based on XUL makes it the most extensible editing tool ever.
