Artisteer is a WYSIWYG website theme creation tool developed by Extensoft. The software automatically creates Web templates including a "Suggest Design" button, which will randomly generate Web design and display the design preview. The user can adjust the design and export it as a Web template in XHTML, CSS format, or as a WordPress theme according to their needs.
The first version of the software was released in September 2008. Artisteer version 3.0 was released in June 2011. The current version available is Artisteer 4.3 which was released in August the 27th, 2014 for Windows.[1] In June 2021 more than 80,000 sites used Artisteer.[2]
Overview
Since its main feature is being an automated WYSIWYG editor, Artisteer separates the HTML code from the visual design, a design choice intended to make it easier for users to create web templates and blog themes. The application can also create tableless layouts. The new created code complies with W3C standards, and generated themes are compatible with most browsers.
Artisteer does not create fully functional Web sites but instead provides Web templates which can be either manually integrated with Web applications or applied to a CMS system. Artisteer also provides an option to export WordPress themes.
The software can also assemble a usable Web template from random elements without user intervention. The user selects the automation feature by the "Suggest Design" option, and they can review the suggested random design.
Due to Artisteers unsolvable constraints such as outdated non-scalable designs, the product was officially replaced by Nicepage in 2018.[3]
