Flux for Mac

I dunno. I bought the full licence but gave up pretty fast because the UI is just so confusing, so busy, I am not a programmer but I am not dumb. Still, there was no continuity or clarity.

Although I bought this software as a full version, I switched to Pinegrow.

The user interface is simply too confusing and not very intuitive. I never had the impression that I could ever use the software properly.

Flux Developer: please, update your software description here in MacUpdate - it looks bad for a company that does software for modern, mobile-first websites to be talking about 'XHTML' and 'Quicktime' and 'Flash'. Also: please update your website, so its layout doesn't break on mobile. Again, it makes you look bad.

Name conflict with F.lux app (https://justgetflux.com) when putting into /Applications. Might be worth addressing this because it is frustrating.

Flux 6 outputs fantastic html/css code, you'll almost think it was handwritten. Kudos to the team, they totally built an app that rivals others.

Learning to code HTML/CSS/Bootstrap is far easier and faster than trying to figure out how to use this piece of software properly. I don’t see a point of spending $100 to make my workflow more confusing and convoluted. Enough said, and yes, it's that bad.

Really expensive upgrades!

One of the best software trailers, ever. Might bring me back to using Flux. Currently, Pinegrow has me with their WordPress kit.

How to I purchase an upgrade from V4 to V6?

I used Flux for a while to learn how it did what it did. I also wanted to compare the flow of Dreamweaver vs. Flux vs. Rapidweaver. Clients were asking for web sites and I had to figure out what was easiest to use. For modifying Wordpress, Dreamweaver. For building ready-made sites from templates, Rapidweaver. I never did figure out where Flux fit. So I stopped using it. Then, just recently, they started SPAMVERTIZING their products to the former customers. I explicitly said "Don't contact me" and up until recently, they didn't. I figured they hired some new marketing person who didn't understand "opt-out" or thought there was a statue of limitation on it. They sent me SPAM twice despite saying "We only send email" on their Twitter feed. I looked at their web site and that explains a lot. They also sell a tool to do bulk emailing. So I guess they were dogfooding. I'll steer clear of this company and their products from now on.
