What makes RapidWeaver the go-to web design platform for Mac users is they provide seamless page management, device simulator, social media tags, htaccess editor, and extensive media manager. Since then, RapidWeaver has been providing the most powerful and easy to use web design app for Mac devices across thousands of users. Programmed under Realmac Software, RapidWeaver was released in 2004 to provide a template-based website editor. Since it’s designed for Mac users, RapidWeaver has all the support for Mac OS devices and other Apple devices. This software is exclusively developed to deliver web developers with website builder tools for Mac devices. It’s expensive, but the included options mean that no Marvel site need look like any other, and we believe the top class of them will more than repay your investment.RapidWeaver is an all-in-one web design software programmed to enable you to build the websites you need. Many of the features that make Marvel sing are covered in the online manual on the developer’s website and checking this out will save time and perspiration. It’s an excellent and unlooked-for addition to the theme. There’s also an extra goodie included with Marvel – the Marvel Split stack – which allows you to create edge-to-edge containers which span the page and can include a background image to create a really simple parallax-style effect, where a small amount of content is scrolled over a much larger image. The results are usually excellent and it cuts down on any troubleshooting time. As a personal preference, when we find a developer who provides both themes and stacks, we’re always inclined to combine them if possible, rather than use stacks from elsewhere. If you already own Cates’ Velvet Video or Superflex 3 slideshow stacks, these can be added with a couple of mouse clicks. You can embed videos from YouTube or Vimeo or if you prefer to host your own, the banner also supports HTML5 video, using a small snippet of code. Looking at the banner area, you can use Rapidweaver’s Banner input field in Settings/General to add the same image to every page, or add individual images, via the Banner Override option. Activated by adding a bit of code in front of the page name, this produces a superbly elegant top menu that sprinkles your page with an extra scattering of fairy dust. This menu is one of our favourite parts of the theme. There’s deep, sophisticated control over the colour of individual elements – including the subtle background colours and gradients, radial start and finish – as well as the natty progress bar that displays while the optional horizontal menu loads. Marvel comes with six fonts for content, headers and headings in a variety of weights and sizes you can also adjust the line height and – in the case of the horizontal navigation, the letter spacing. As your visitors scroll down the page, the menu button hovers on top of the content, making it always accessible, and users of the Cartloom e-commerce system can add a shopping basket item to the top right of their site pages with a single click (and the addition of a simple code snippet). In any case, each style option includes the same basic elements – a buttery-smooth slide-out vertical navigation panel (with optional accompanying horizontal menu) space for a large central image, slideshow or video, social icons, an angled section and then whatever content you decide to add underneath. Unusually these days, Marvel includes 12 ‘styles’ where the colour scheme, fonts, item dimensions and element positioning is already decided for you this makes it very easy for beginners who can sometimes feel a bit paralysed by all the various options on offer with a typical Rapidweaver theme. Marvel is lightweight, fast and has enough options to make it suitable for creating websites to showcase a wide range of business and service types – as well as providing a great platform for a personal site or for serious blogging. This new theme from long-time Rapidweaver developer Nick Cates has the distinctive chunky look-and-feel we’ve come to associate with his most recent work (indeed, it shares many of its visual characteristics with the Royale theme).
