You Can Now Create Beautiful Websites Without Writing Code

This feature is sponsored by Webydo.









Traditionally, a web designer is not only responsible for the creative aspect of making a website, but also has to deal with the time-consuming technical part that involves struggling with code or hiring a developer to convert graphic design into code. Webydo, a revolutionary web design software, promises to change that and put designers in the driver’s seat.







Based in Tel Aviv, Israel, with an office in New Jersey, U.S.A, Webydo is created for web designers and graphic designers who want to make beautiful websites for their clients in an easier, faster and less expensive way. With its code-free, “what-you-see-is-what-you-get” design interface and array of advanced features, it serves to empower designers with total creative freedom and independence.



Not only does Webydo let designers take control of the entire process of designing a website, it also allows them to build and manage their web design business with greater ease. Find out more about how this all-in-one solution works below.







START WITH A BLANK CANVAS , A LAYOUT OR A DESIGN







While Webydo aims to help designers built websites from scratch with a blank canvas, it also gives users the option to start with one of their inspirational sample websites or choose a pre-structured template to work with. Playing around with these options is also a great way to test out Webydo and discover it’s many great professional design tools and features.







DESIGN IN BROWSER, DRAG & DROP, NO CODES NEEDED







The biggest advantage of using Webydo is that designers would be able to cut out the expensive middleman—the developer—from the web design process, who often accounts for 70% of the budget. Its powerful collection of tools would give you control over all design elements and help you save time with its high user-friendliness.



Webydo’s code-free interface is made possible by a handy code generator, developed by a team of talented mathematicians and engineers, that automatically converts graphic design into code. With this cutting-edge piece of technology, designers can now view their designs in real-time while working on them, eliminating the need to consult with developers to bring their ideas across. This frees up more time and energy for producing better creative work, all without the need to write a single line of code.







Simplifying the design process by making work flow intuitive and efficient, designers can drag and drop all their design elements on Webydo, including images, texts, videos, flash, galleries, widgets and even their own HTML codes. With precision tools such as a grid generator, rulers and guidelines, they would be able to make sure that ever single pixel is exactly where they should be.







To ensure that designers would be able to create responsive websites that look equally good across all browsers and devices, Webydo would generate a cross-platform code that is updated to the latest industry standards.







IF YOU CAN PHOTOSHOP, YOU CAN WEBYDO







As part of their “radical democracy” philosophy, the Webydo team is constantly acquiring feedback from their community of designers and following up with their requests for new features. Including all the familiar tools found in common graphic design software, anyone who is used to working with Photoshop or Indesign would be able to pick up Webydo easily.



Conventionally, designers would have to create static website designs on Photoshop to act as blueprints for developers. With developers taken out of the equation, it follows that there is also no longer a need to create static files, which does not convey the experience of a functioning website anyway.



From smart guide and snapping, layers window and text captions to designing sophisticated forms and setting corner radiuses, Webydo offers a wide range of useful features. If there are any other features you need, simply drop the Webydo Product team a note and it will become a reality. Webydo is a community-led platform with a radically democratic development process. Its development road map is being determined by their community of 30,000 professional creatives.











ALL-IN-ONE: DESIGN, PUBLISH, MANAGE YOUR BUSINESS







Once the web design has been finalized, designers would only have to upload all the design elements and click “publish” for their high quality website to go live. There is nothing to set up, install, update, fix or optimize—it is that simple.



By getting the developers out of the way, Webydo also paves the way for designers to have clearer and more direct communication with their clients. To further enhance designer-client relationship, an impressive CMS (Content Management System) has also been integrated with the web design software to make managing and updating the website a breeze for website owners. This complements the DMS (Design Management System) used by the designer to create the website.







To be a one-stop hub from which to build and grow a web design business, Webydo is packed with an exhaustive array of management features. In addition to offering advanced cloud-hosting, it also allows designers to bill their clients directly from the Webydo Dashboard. Lastly, the “Build Your Brand” feature lets designers customize the Webydo system with their own unique identity.
