Sandvox

Sandvox is a WYSIWYG template-based website creation tool by Karelia Software, based on WebKit. Released May 16, 2006, it competes directly with Apple's iWeb and Realmac Software's RapidWeaver. Sandvox can be purchased with either a regular or pro license. The pro license includes additional features, such as the ability to include raw HTML pages and "pagelets" within the created website, along with Google Webmaster Tools integration. In 2007, Sandvox 1.2 won the runner-up Apple Design Award for Best Mac OS X User Experience.[1]

Overview and features

Sandvox is a website and blog creation tool. The end-user does not need to have any knowledge of web languages in order to effectively use the product.

The features of Sandvox include:

  • website creation with pre-designed templates bundled with the download
  • An iLife media browser
  • Drag and drop support for media files
  • Support for blogging and podcasting
  • One-click publishing to most webservers after some initial setup
  • Direct one-click publishing to some web servers

Sandvox was released in its first version with full-time development by Karelia Software. It includes some features that iWeb does not, including the capability to add comments and trackbacks through Haloscan and JS-Kit (a feature available in iWeb only through a third-party application called iComment or when publishing to .Mac) and the ability to add raw HTML pages and "pagelets". This last feature allows users to add their own content, in their own format, to their websites.

Sandvox 2.10.12 has still 32bit dependencies. This means that in case you are running Sandvox with MacOS 10.14.6 the program might crash.

gollark: Er, I mean, crab crab crab praise Ferris bow before the borrow checker?
gollark: I do prefer nim use over rust now, not because I care about it being smaller but because it feels like a nicer language for my arbitrary purposes.
gollark: I love how minoteaur's very restrictive content security policy causes four warnings on every page load because of extensions unsafely injecting JS into the page.
gollark: You use the "up arrow" button to put the last line into your input prompt thing, and then press "home" to navigate to the start of that line.
gollark: Nope, they suggest you just use up arrow and home.
