Adobe Muse is a Graphic Designer’s Dream Come True

Muse? Not the band! It’s the code name for Adobe’s new wonder for creatives. Adobe Muse is meant for people who are print designers that also want to create great HTML and CSS based websites. I sung praises when I saw this.

How easy is it to make a website? Hint, you don’t have to code! If you know how to use Illustrator and Indesign, you can quickly drag and drop, add typography, edit, and publish a website with ease. Adobe, you seriously answered my prayers with this one. I learned how to code, yet it was such a pain to endure!

Check out the public beta for download here (you do need an Adobe ID to continue though, but it’s not hard!). Pricing, post beta, is looking to be around $15 per month, which isn’t bad. I believe it even includes hosting, free updates, and access to the program.

I’m ready to make the jump and already poking around the program. Are you? Let me know your thoughts fellow creatives!
