So far in the 30 minutes I tooled around with it, I picked up a few interesting ideas for a project I'm working on to teach myself more css. In so far as I've already improved my skills, I'd say I can see myself using this tool. Dropping $40 or more for a native app like CSSEdit is probably a good idea if your work will pay for it (or if you can write it off as a tax expense), but I can't easily afford to do that every time a good app comes around.
In short, this is a decent app at the current price.
- sp4rki 16y agoIf you're an aspiring painter, you buy brushes, paper, inks, etc. If you're an aspiring CSS guru, you buy the CSS editor that makes you more productive. For me it's Vim (whoa wait... free!), for some it's Textmate, and for most it's CSS Edit. Also in CSS Edit's defense there is no better visual CSS editor, and there hasn't been one for years and years. If you're into CSS I'd reckon buying CSS Edit is the best way to go. If you're going to be into programming also, I'd say take a look into Vim, Emacs, or Textmate and never look back.

- sp4rki 16y agoBecause regardless of when the tools where created, the important thing is the quality of such tools. I'd rather go with tools that make me productive, while keeping out an eye for the new players, than to be on the cutting edge and lose some of the edge I might get from using 'older tools'
