HTML-Kit

This is the free edition of HTML-Kit Tools, an application suite that provides you with the necessary components for creating, editing and producing HTML websites. It is wrapped in a user-friendly workspace and comes loaded with a bunch of advanced and intuitive functions and configurable settings.

Customizable setup pack and user-friendly UI

Installing HTML-Kit shouldn't be a difficult task, and you can exclude any components from setup when it comes to help references, tag helpers, various tools (e.g. color picker, stylesheet editor), HTML Tidy tool, online tools, along with default code snippets and templates.
The interface is based on a large window with a neatly organized structure, where you can enable syntax highlighting support for the code editor, preview the design within the main frame, explore resources in an Explorer-based folder structure, as well as switch to the split view mode (editor and design).

Resort to handy HTML utilities

A lot of tools are put at your disposal. For example, you can check, correct, convert and format HTML, XHTML or XML markups, upgrade to style sheets, remove font tags or convert them to uppercase or lowercase, check accessibility, insert the current date and time, or open a list with recently used tools.
It is also possible to apply multiple types of actions in batch mode, insert images, activate a spellchecker, consult a thesaurus, create bookmarks, run external programs, generate plugins, create tables and forms, as well as to save the current project to file to resume it later. These are just part of the available options provided by this software utility.

Evaluation and conclusion

There were no kinds of difficulties in our tests, thanks to the fact that HTML-Kit did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. Its impact on computer performance was minimal, as it consumed low CPU and RAM. The only downside to the app is that it hasn't been updated for a pretty long time. Otherwise, HTML-Kit comes packed with a lot of handy options and customization preferences for developing and managing HTML projects.
