Webydo is a cloud-based web design platform that allows designers to create advanced HTML5, responsive websites with a built-in CMS, without writing code. Webydo works with the WYSIWYG principle. This platform utilizes tools similar to those used in other software such as Adobe Photoshop or InDesign, but with the ability to design directly in the browser. Designers can drag and drop their design elements on canvas, and Webydo's cloud software automatically generates cross-browser and cross-platform W3C validated HTML code as well as a built-in CMS for dynamic updates changed by the website owner.
Webydo is a cloud-based software as a service, providing two integrated work environments that can be used directly in the browser:
Webydo's DMS has a WYSIWYG design interface that allows designers to drag and drop into the online canvas design elements such as images, texts, videos, flash, galleries, menus, custom designed forms, widgets, or custom HTML code. In July 2013, Webydo's partnership with Ecwid added a built-in e-commerce functionality. Designers can start their clients' sites from scratch on a blank canvas, choose a layout or from pre-made designs (in which each element can be modified later).
When the designer publishes their website, Webydo's code generator automatically creates the HTML code, which is updated to the W3C standards, cross-browser and cross-platform compatible, optimized for search engines and comes with a built-in content management system (CMS) and SEO management tools. Furthermore, the CMS permits further updating, deleting and creating new content in the website by the website owner. Designers can also lock specific design elements, preventing unwanted changes made by their CMS clients and preserving full artistic control.
