From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Microsoft SharePoint Designer (full name Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer) is a WYSIWYG HTML editor and web design program from Microsoft exclusively for SharePoint sites and part of the SharePoint family of products. It is part of the Microsoft Office 2007 family but not included in any of the Office 2007 suites. The name change, from FrontPage, reflects the emphasis on designing and customizing SharePoint websites, while Expression Web is the full-featured successor to FrontPage. SharePoint Designer shares its codebase, UI and HTML rendering engine with Microsoft Expression Web, and does not rely on Internet Explorer's Trident engine which is less standards compliant.[1] Its main difference from the general web design application, Expression Web is that it does not include non-SharePoint site templates. It only includes local website templates for SharePoint. It retains more FrontPage features than Expression Web such as web components, database, marquee, hit counter, navigation bars, insert maps etc.
SharePoint Designer 2007 is available as license-restricted freeware. [2]
Its designer-oriented counterpart, Microsoft Expression Web, which bears striking similarity to Microsoft SharePoint Designer, is aimed at general web development.
