yGen2.2.0.4

Web designers, be they professionals or amateurs, are often required to go through repetitive tasks when creating web pages, since so many of them contain almost the same elements and it can seem like a waste of time to redo them.With the help of yGen, developers can reuse the same parts (headers, menu bar, side bars and others), editing and compiling the pages to any preferred extension, such as HTML or PHP, then uploading them to FTP.

Experience is a necessity

The program experiences a quick and uneventful setup, with no events to speak of, after which it allows users to start working with it, bearing in mind that prior knowledge of HTML is required.The main window of yGen is a medium-sized, non-adjustable screen, with several buttons for loading the pages, customizing their contents and editing them; however, they can prove quite opaque, as there are no tooltips to instruct users on the role of each one.

Creating conditional includes for recycling web page elements

The application is not in any way accessible to novices, as the entire coding process is performed manually using HTML syntax. This means users need to know how to create websites in advance, as yGen will not help them gain additional knowledge.yGen is supports multiple extensions, including HTML, TXT, PHP and any other. Acting both as an editor and a compiler, the tool enables users to generate fully-completed files using templates and includes, the latter supporting nesting, so no duplication will be required.Moreover, once the files are done, yGen lets users upload them to a FTP server, provided that the connection details are configured in the program. Other automatically executed tasks include the addition of title tags to the links, for SEO purposes.

A web page builder for professional developers with a solid knowledge of HTML

All in all, yGen is an advanced piece of software aimed to assist users in their day to day job of creating web pages with similar elements, by enabling them to avoid duplicating the same content and thus saving time.
