Anyone requiring a web authoring system solution to create web pages and manage websites
About NVU
A complete web authoring system for Linux Desktop, Microsoft Windows and Macintosh users to rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver. Nvu (pronounced N-view, for a "new view") makes managing a website a snap. Now anyone can create web pages and manage a website with no technical expertise or knowledge of HTML. Nvu and KompoZer are free, open-source solutions, and are community-supported. If you are having a problem with Nvu or KompoZer, then visit and look for help. NVU 1.0, released in June 2005, is the last official release that you will find at most download sites, however, it isn't the newest or best version of the Nvu software. An unofficial bugfix/update called "KompoZer" is available here. KompoZer is not a cure-all for all the bugs in NVU 1.0, but it does fix some of the major annoyances. If you use NVU 1.0 and it works for you, stick with it. But if you run into problems, give KompoZer a try and see if it helps.

Maqetta
Maqetta is an open source project that provides WYSIWYG visual authoring of HTML5 user interfaces. The Maqetta application itself is authored in HTML, and therefore runs in the browser without requiring additional plugins or downloads. Maqetta is available under a commercial-friendly open source license. You can download the source code and install it on your own server, customize the code to fit your needs and/or contribute improvements to the open source project. The HTML pages created by Maqetta typically work across all popular browsers, including IE (caveat: this depends on the JavaScript toolkit you use and coding details). But if you want to run the Maqetta application, you'll need to use a recent release of one of the following browsers, all of which support the HTML5 features that Maqetta requires. The project's code is built using 100% open standards technologies.
