Does it make sense to master visual HTML editors?

Question

Adobe

Recently, I have been actively studying HTML CSS JS PHP MySQL has already created a number of sites on ready-made engines, frames, a number of one-pagers, mini engines with mini admins, etc., I actively use php, and then one day the question arose if I was losing time for layout design manually, because I do everything in Notpad++ ??? I’ll say right away I didn’t install Muse, and in general I didn’t have anything to do with visual editors, I read it only in general, but it’s scary to imagine that I spent a lot of time on
layout ?(

Answer 1

Not worth it.
Visual editors are evil. As a result, you will get a code that no normal web developer can figure out.
About pulling all this heap of incomprehensible and unnecessary tags with zero structure on some engine (even on self-writing) - you will experience incredible "pleasure".

Answer 2

only if you are a designer and layout is not what you will do.

Answer 3

"Visual" is for playing around, not for work. If you are planning to grow towards big projects, work with the backend, you should look at serious IDEs like PHPStorm and the like.

Answer 4

emmet needs to be mastered. It doesn't matter which editor. Although, I think you already know him anyway ... But you never know.
