Chapter 1. Dreamweaver CC Guided Tour

Dreamweaver CC is a powerful program for designing and building websites. If you’re brand-new to Dreamweaver, turn to What Dreamweaver Is All About for a quick look at what the program can do; if you’re a longtime Dreamweaver fan, What’s New in Dreamweaver CC tells you what’s new in this latest incarnation of the program.

And, because doing is often a better way to learn than just reading, you’ll get a step-by-step tour of web page design—the Dreamweaver way—in the tutorial at the end of this chapter.
