In their own words
Pinegrow
Pinegrow is a visual web editor for professionals working with HTML, CSS, SASS, Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS, GSAP Interactions, WordPress, and WooCommerce. It combines visual controls for adding, moving, cloning, editing, and deleting HTML elements with code editing. Styling tools support live CSS, SASS, and LESS editing, including a CSS Grid editor. Pages can be adjusted across device sizes, with custom breakpoints or detection from stylesheets. Pinegrow also supports master pages, reusable components with editable areas, and a CMS mode for static HTML sites. Its AI Assistant edits markup and styles using a provider and API key supplied by the user, and works alongside Claude Code and Codex CLI. The WordPress Builder turns HTML pages into themes or Gutenberg blocks and exports standard PHP files. Pinegrow supports Git and live sync with Atom and VS Code. Each user needs a separate license and can install the editor on up to three computers. A Pinegrow Web Editor license costs $49.50 a year.
