We Want Your Website to be Great
Since we released our first Web design programs more than 10 years ago, we have created a lot of HTML and Flash™ software to help people just like you. Our philosophy since the beginning has been to create more programs, software, and services that let you create better Websites. With that in mind, we developed Web Form Builder, a revolutionary software program for creating Web forms, and Photo Gallery, which makes putting your pictures online a breeze. All our Web design software is available as free trial downloads so you can play with the programs before you buy them. We are dedicated to helping you by offering extraordinary software support so we can succeed together.
We created our software with the help of millions of users worldwide. Once you join our family, every idea or feature you suggest counts. Don’t be surprised if your suggestion becomes a new program or feature you can actually see and use. We listen to our users because we make software to help improve your business or personal Websites. That’s what we’re all about. Consider us a partner and a friend, because at CoffeeCup, it really is about the fresh software and warm people.
Software History and the HTML Editor
CoffeeCup Software was started inside a real coffeehouse in the early summer of 1996. Back then, good software to create cool Websites was really hard to find, so the first Website for the coffeehouse was made with hand-coded HTML using Notepad. One day, while chatting with a few regulars about creating Websites, the idea of a simple yet powerful HTML editor was born. We wanted to create a nifty piece of software that would make it easy for people like us to build our own Websites. One of the regulars was a programmer, so we got to work. In August of 1996, the first version of our HTML Editor was released.
Since the coffeehouse already had the www.coffeecup.com domain name, our first software program was called the CoffeeCup HTML Editor, and the company was named CoffeeCup Software. Yep, it happened just like that — the company was named after the HTML Editor and the Website URL.
Soon, the coffeehouse was closed as we focused on creating and releasing shareware applications like the Image Mapper and Direct FTP. The rest is software history.
