I tried both Coda and Textmate/CSS Edit about 4 months ago and purchased Textmate/CSS Edit. Just didn't like the way Coda flowed at all. I agree.

Coda + CSSEdit! That's what I've been using since the day Coda was released. Very happy with the combo. Coda even lets you open CSS files in CSSEdit from within Coda. I also still use Transmit for some tasks, but most of the time using Coda is quicker. The great thing about all this software is that it's cheap enough that you can just buy it all without worrying too much about how much you'll use them. Rock on Mac indy devs!

The day Panic release Coda, we have a big discussion about it on MacGénération's forums. Most of the people were saying "i switch to coda", "Coda is better than TextMate". But I agree with you : Coda is a cool, powerful and beautyful app, but for the most important thing : editing text, TextMate is by far (far far far far far far) the better app ever. And Everybody should remember that TextMate 2.0 will be free for TextMate 1.x customers and will certainly be a great surprise ! I’m french so please excuse my english ;-)

I don't see Yummy mentioned as much as Interarchy or Transmit - works perfectly for my workflow. I love the TextMate, CSSEdit and Yummy combo myself.

It'll make a great introductory app for web development but it's cumbersome for anything else. Nobody builds a house with a swiss army knife or a utility knife. A good carpenter will pay lots of money for a quality hammer. Another gripe I have is that Coda is essentially a two-layered window. On the surface it looks like one click switching but it's more like a two step process. Not necessarily faster than switching between several apps and more confusing. Plus, if Coda crashes it'll take your whole environment with it. That would suck. This and a lack of integration with source control makes it even more pricey at $79. However, I appreciate the effort that went into this work and look forward to the extra competition it brings to an increasingly tight market. I'll hang on to my iTerm, TextMate, CSSEdit, YummyFTP combo for the indefinite future. I think you nail it and this is pretty much like my own review.

A great tool for those who don't need advanced text-editing capabilities and who aren't likely to want to customise their working environment, but for me it isn't the ticket.
