Claris Homepage was one of the earliest true what-you-see-is-what-you-get HTML editors. Purchased from a 3rd party, Claris re-worked it to feature their corporate user interface and released it about 1995.
Homepage supported all of the features common in HTML at the time, and was notable for its excellent table editor. Even new users could create reasonable looking pages and upload them to their web server with a minimum of effort. The program did not include any sort of template system however, nor a system for creating menus or rollovers. It also suffered from a number of bugs and display glitches, which Claris never fixed. Nevertheless, Homepage gained a reputation as one of the most user-friendly HTML editors at the time.
Claris reorganized as FileMaker Inc. in 1998, with Homepage and the FileMaker database as its only remaining products. Homepage was ultimately discontinued in 2001.
