Learning Front End while using learning with Dreamweaver

Is this a good idea? I've read that Dreamweaver is bloated with some code, but if I'm learning to code its not a bad tool to use for design. I wanted to work on my personal site and I needed some visual help. Does anyone use the program for this?

There may be some students who use Dreamweaver or similar software. At Treehouse, we don't and our aim is education from a foundational point of view, and we don't (and likely won't) provide any workshops or courses in relation to Dreamweaver or any other WYSIWYG style of software.

In my personal opinion, if you have high ambitions for becoming a good developer, I would advise not relying on something like Dreamweaver.
