[SOLVED] Request recomm for a WYSIWYG website-builder package

Good morning fellow Archers,

I have been awarded a contract with a smaller municipality to provide them a complete IT changeout to Linux. Part of that project is that the city is requesting a website. I have spoken to sales reps for the "bigger" hosting companies to see if their "builder" tools can do what the City needs. Because the website needs to have segregated security, I have been told that the automated builders will not meet the cities needs.

I am a C/C++ guy, and have been for the last 20 years. I do not have sufficient expertise in HTML to manually create for them a "pretty" website. I need a WYSIWYG builder.

There are several packages I see, all of which I do not have any experience.....

Can someone please point me to a good WYSIWYG website builder that you would recommend for me?

I can edit HTML...I just don't feel comfy manually building it all. For fine tuning editing purposes, I will use the Bluefish editor.

Thank you for your help,

Sincerely and respctfully,

Dave

There really isn't a real good HTML WYSIWYG in Linux. However my needs are simple, Basic. Nothing complicated.

I selected the "bluegriffon" package in the AUR as I could not get Amaya (my 1st choice) to build. Amaya is also orphaned for some reason.

FYI,

Sincerely,

Dave
