    Webstorm has only a code editor and real time preview, but no WYSIWYG editor like Adobe Dreamweaver. While typing you always need to deal with code specific syntax.

    It's a code editor like Dreamweaver, with visual preview, but it's much more like CodePen.

    Not able to edit visually - just text editor with preview - coding playground. It's nice but is not an alternative to Dreamweaver. More like CodePen.io
