What is a Textual HTML editor?

As the name implies, textual HTML editors are text-based. You should have HTML knowledge when using these types of editors. Features include opening files — either a single file, a whole project or multiple projects are universally available for all editors. When using a textual based editor, you can not see a live preview of the website.

This type of editor may provide more freedom and personalized options. Using a textual editor, you may better optimize web pages for search engines. For example, it’s possible to create a web page that follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), so that people with disabilities can view your web page.
