Correlating High Profile Design Software With Opensource Free Ones?
I am a start up. I do not have capital but once I do I can put it towards Adobe Creative suite.
In the meantime, does anyone know of a site that correlates all the best software with its opensource freeware version?
For example, Dreamweaver — NVU
Photoshop—Gimp___paint.net
etc etc.
I am especially interested in something similar to
Flash
and Adobe CAPTIVATE.
Ultimately, I would like to create a really good learning management system. Check out ellis college of new york done by the Cardean learning group. the site they put together is fantastic. Id like to be able to do something like that someday. in one of their whitepapers they talk about their architecture, conssiting of
apache, flashremoting server, tomcat j2ee, edge, uid, xerces, oro, jetspeed, velocity, turbine, jide, oracle, flash communication server, etc.
where to start?

Web tools are a sufficiently diverse subject that it may be helpful to break this down tool by tool:
Gimp vs Photoshop:http://grimthing.com/archives/2007/01/11…
Dreamweaver vs NVUhttp://mobilemind.net/2005/12/dreamweave…
Dreamweaver vs Drupal (bet you didn’t see that one coming)http://openconcept.ca/dreamweaver_vs_dru…
More info on open source Flash projects than you ever wanted to know:http://osflash.org/open_source_flash_pro…
That should be plenty of information to keep you busy. Best of luck with your startup. Incidentally, if you’re in the process of launching a low to medium traffic site, I suggest using an Open Source CMS like Drupal to help get things off the ground.
