Free Microsoft FrontPage Alternative For Mac OS
Microsoft FrontPage is a popular WYSIWYG editor used to manage website pages. Though there are a recognizable set of management tools but Frontpage won’t pass the standard of coding (html/xhtml), for this reason we need a Microsoft Frontpage alternative. For making html pages the best alternative can be Dreamweaver but it’s not free and comes with a 30-days trial pack!
Mac OS users can have free Microsoft Frontpage alternative on their desktop. Though there are various alternatives for Frontpage on MAC but here I’ve mentioned some of the popular freeware that are enough to carry out the tasks achieved by Frontpage editor.
NVU – A popular open source and the best Mac alternative for Microsoft Front page, NVU has all the robust features that are in Dreamweaver or Frontpage program.
Without technical experience one can make professional sites with NVU, it’s easy to use, free and also has many features making it easier for building and managing website pages right from your desktop. Download NVU for Mac! A recommended html editor.
Komposer – Komposer is a free WYSIWYG FrontPage alternative that is built for Mac, Windows users comes with a complete web pages management system, super-easy and a reliable tool based on Gecko (Mozilla engine).
With komposer the added advantage of spell checker, customized toolbars, FTP manager, HTML validator, CSS editor, color picker comes free. Stable version of Komposer can be directly downloaded from source forge (11mb) (Mac version).

Is Komposer compatible with FrontPage. I have used frontpage with my windows PC for years to update our site. But now we all use macs and am not sure how to update our site. Do I have to start from scratch with a new mac app? Any suggestions? Thanks!
I lied, Komposer is way better than NVU. NVU is too buggy. It crashed 3 times in the first 10 minutes.
Nvu is amazing. Thank you.
Not sure about Komposer but NVU is super easy for making html and inserting flash stuffs as well.
Yes, which program from the above listed doesn't make simple html pages?
