I just wanted to post this up because I think the website for the OS X web design app CODA is what I would call a superb example of a site. It has the perfect balance of functionality and appeal and showcases some of the cool things that can be done with javascript, without overdoing it. What do you guys think?

I like it except for the page transition. I think it just doesnt go with the rest of the website. Besides it's kinda choppy, it should ease out and stop instead. Or I think a fade out fade in transition would work best. I don't think its the best design though - bit too plain for my liking.

I admit it's plain, but the point of this site is marketing - so it should be. It gets the point across bluntly and does it well.

How does CODA work exactly?
I'm finding it a bit hard to understand

Sorry if this is a stupid question...haha

its a coding program lol "CODA" but yah i like coda, i only use it for php but its very nice..

[austen]

Coda is essentially like dreamweaver (minus the design view) with features that make it MUCH better actually in my opinion. For example built in SSH. (OS X has this anyway, but it's nice to have a terminal window in your app) Check out the website for a complete list of features.

I have heard about CODA but have'nt used it so far. Is it so easy and simple to use CODA from the designing point of view?

I have only used Coda from the coding end and then previewed the site through Coda, Im not 100% sure if you can like... put all the sliced images together, link it all up what have you through the design front like Dreamweaver... Anyone else clarify?
