Adobe Dreamweaver: the visual web editor for integrators and creatives

Adobe Dreamweaver is the professional web editor of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite, dedicated to the creation and maintenance of websites. Combining a complete code view (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP) and a visual view (Live View, design view), Dreamweaver offers a hybrid environment suited to both integrators and creatives transitioning to the web. The suite natively integrates the Bootstrap framework for responsive design, an FTP/SFTP client, multi-file site management, reusable templates and element libraries, as well as close integration with Photoshop, Illustrator and XD.

In French-speaking Switzerland, Geneva and Vaud communication agencies, brand marketing and communication departments, SMEs, creative freelancers, associations, cantonal collectivities and public structures widely use Adobe Dreamweaver to produce and maintain showcase websites, landing pages, HTML newsletters and event microsites. Dreamweaver remains particularly valued in profiles combining graphic skills (Photoshop, Illustrator) and web production needs without resorting to a developer. ITTA offers the Adobe Dreamweaver catalogue on-site in Geneva and Lausanne as well as in interactive virtual classroom with an Adobe-certified web integrator live.

Following a recognised Adobe Dreamweaver training opens access to highly operational roles: web integrator, web designer, web graphic designer, digital communication officer, web freelancer, content manager, SME web site manager. Dreamweaver is particularly suited to profiles producing or maintaining HTML/CSS content daily without needing a full development IDE.

Whether you are starting on Dreamweaver to produce your first sites with Bootstrap, strengthening your intermediate responsive design mastery, or preparing a ramp-up on advanced features, our Adobe Dreamweaver training in Geneva and Lausanne covers the entire web integration path.

Adobe Dreamweaver in the ITTA web ecosystem

Adobe Dreamweaver training fits into a broader web and creative ecosystem at ITTA. The root Adobe taxonomy regroups all Adobe Creative Cloud training (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, Premiere Pro, XD), complementary to Dreamweaver in creative workflows. The web development sub-domain covers advanced front-end and back-end training (modern JavaScript, React/Angular/Vue frameworks, Node.js) for profiles wishing to go beyond Dreamweaver. The integration front-end development sub-domain centralises HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Sass and modern CSS frameworks training.

Adobe Dreamweaver trends in 2026

Adobe continues to maintain Dreamweaver in the Creative Cloud suite, emphasising integration with other Adobe tools (Photoshop, XD, Illustrator) and modern web best practices (WCAG accessibility, Core Web Vitals performance, advanced responsive design with CSS Grid). Dreamweaver remains relevant for creative profiles producing HTML/CSS content without needing a full development IDE (VS Code, JetBrains). For complex web projects, professional front-end developers generally use specialised editors (VS Code) and frameworks (React, Vue, Angular), areas covered by ITTA’s web development training. Our pedagogical content regularly integrates Bootstrap, CSS Grid evolutions and accessibility best practices.

FAQ

Do I need to know HTML/CSS before Dreamweaver Fundamentals?

No, the Fundamentals training is designed to start without HTML/CSS prerequisites. The basics are taught in parallel with Dreamweaver onboarding. General web culture however facilitates assimilation. For Intermediate and Advanced levels, HTML/CSS basics are expected, either acquired via Fundamentals or via operational experience. Our pedagogical team checks prerequisites at enrolment.

Dreamweaver or VS Code: which to choose?

Both tools respond to different needs. Dreamweaver is a hybrid editor (code view + visual view) suited to creatives and non-developer profiles producing HTML/CSS content. VS Code is a professional code editor preferred by front-end developers working with modern frameworks (React, Vue, Angular). Many profiles use Dreamweaver in creative environments then evolve towards VS Code as they ramp up development. Our pedagogical team guides you according to your profile.

Is Dreamweaver still relevant against WordPress builders (Elementor, Divi)?

Yes, in certain cases. Dreamweaver remains relevant for static sites, custom landing pages, HTML newsletters and event microsites where a WordPress CMS is not suitable. WordPress builders (Elementor, Divi) remain dominant for dynamic WordPress sites. Many profiles use both depending on the project. Our pedagogical team guides you according to your business use cases.

Are your Adobe Dreamweaver courses available for companies?

Yes, the entire Adobe Dreamweaver catalogue is available in-house, in Geneva, Lausanne and in virtual classroom, with a programme adapted to your existing site, graphic charter and business use cases. Our team builds the specifications with you and organises sessions according to your calendar.
