Freeway is a WYSIWYG web design application for Mac OS X (older versions also run under Mac OS 9), developed by the English company Softpress Systems. There are two flavours of Freeway: Pro and Express, both currently at version 5. Freeway Express has fewer features and is aimed more at the amateur web designer. Freeway is based on a pre-Mac OS X print publishing application called Uniqorn, also developed by Softpress, but discontinued when Apple stopped supporting QuickDraw GX in Mac OS 8.

  • Freeway is a WYSIWYG web design application for Mac OS X (older versions also run under Mac OS 9), developed by the English company Softpress Systems. There are two flavours of Freeway: Pro and Express, both currently at version 5. Freeway Express has fewer features and is aimed more at the amateur web designer. Freeway is based on a pre-Mac OS X print publishing application called Uniqorn, also developed by Softpress, but discontinued when Apple stopped supporting QuickDraw GX in Mac OS 8. The philosophy behind Freeway is that an average user is able to design websites without having to deal with any code, using an interface very similar to that of Desktop publishing applications like QuarkXPress or Adobe InDesign. Advanced procedures (like connecting to a MySQL database using a scripting language like PHP) are done through plug-ins called "Actions". Several Actions can be downloaded for free on several websites, but there are also commercial 3rd Party Actions, like the "Action Seller Suite", which allows the creation of Ebay-friendly HTML within the Freeway design interface. Many useful Actions are bundled with Freeway, the latest set from Softpress being a suite of Actions that lets the user create a shopping cart through the popular Mals e-commerce system. Unlike most other WYSIWYG web design applications, Freeway produces syntactically valid HTML code, making it usable in situations where valid HTML code is obligatory. For example, valid code is required by law on the majority of federal and state institutions' web sites in Germany. Freeway 4.4 also creates HTML and CSS that correct many rendering problems with Internet Explorer 6 on Windows.
  • Freeway ist ein WYSIWYG HTML-Editor der englischen Firma Softpress Systems. Freeway wird für Mac OS X angeboten, ältere Versionen sind auch unter Mac OS 9 lauffähig. Freeway wird in zwei Versionen angeboten, Freeway Pro und Freeway Express. Die Software dient zur Verwaltung von Webseiten-Projekten und der Gestaltung von Webseiten. Sie bietet dem Benutzer eine Bedienungs-Oberfläche, die an Desktop Publishing-Programme erinnert. Die vom Benutzer gestalteten Seiten werden in einer internen Datenbank abgelegt. HTML-Code wird erst zum Zeitpunkt eines Uploads erzeugt, also wenn die Seiten auf einen Webserver geladen werden. Mit der aktuellen Version kann der Benutzer Online-Shops generieren und im Internet eröffnen, ohne sich dazu mit Programmierung oder Datenbanken auseinandersetzen zu müssen. XHTML und erweiterte CSS-Funktionalität sind in dem Programm integriert. Ein derartiges Programm wird gelegentlich auch als Web-Generator oder HTML-Generator bezeichnet. Freeway preist sein Programm damit an, einfach Websites zu gestalten "ohne damit eine einzige Zeile Code schreiben zu müssen".
