Investigating software options for creating a digital portfolio:

the first option is the front page
The third option is the html.
the second option the dream weaver


Each one of these options helps me create a digital portfolio. The front page helps me create a digital portfolio because it crates and maintain web pages which suites to my needs –without learning Html. Also because web templates shared borders for navigation, categories control, and apply themes.

HTML, short for Hypertext Markup Language it provides a means to describe the structure of text –based information in a document by denoting certain text as headings ,paragraphs ,lists, and so on … And to supplement that text with interactive forms , embedded images and other objects. HTML is written in the form of labels (known as tags), surrounded by angle brackets.

Dream weaver, is a web development tool originally created by Macromedia (now part of Adobe Systems). The software is available for both the Mac and Windows platforms. Dream weaver is currently owned by Adobe Systems, which acquired Macromedia in 2005. Dreamweaver can hide the details of pages' HTML code from the user, making it possible for non-coders to create web pages and sites. Dreamweaver allows users to preview websites in many browsers, provided that they are installed on their computer. It also has some site management tools, such as the ability to find and replace lines of text or code by whatever parameters specified across the entire site, and a templatization feature for creating multiple pages with similar structures. The behaviors panel also enables use of basic JavaScript without any coding knowledge.
