https://mobirise.com/

Curious what yall got to say?

The site fishes for info before giving access to the product.

Yeah, I'm with @GreyWolf, I would not trust that for anything. Download it using Facebook or Google so they can spam your timeline or give them an email address so they can send you a code to access your account? What account?

MOBIRISE
Check your email. Your account password is sent to [fake email]

@Your PCMD What account? ... Your checking account , Your bank account , your paypal credentials, etc..

Unfortunately too many red flags for the total worth value.. You would not see me build a payable shop with a free site builder too much liability issues for my clients.

I'm currently using the beaver builder plugin for wordpress, and then stuffing that through w2static to make a static version of my website to publish.

I like hand coding, starting with a framework like Bootstrap or buying a theme to work off of from ThemeForest.

Surely you use something better at least Notepad++, Atom, or Brackets?

I kid you not, I still have my Frontpage CD.

But I'm like @mikeroq and hand code. Anyone on here that knows me know this is the way I design and build sites.

Netobject fusion a long time ago if I wanted something to generate part of the code but I usually used it for things like Technibble's kit launcher type setups.

Theses days hand code and lots of programming to make better high quality secure image formats I also do my own fonts when required.

Dreamweaver 4.0 for me.

WP with the beaver builder theme as well.
