About This App

BlueGriffon is a free, open-source WYSIWYG web page editor powered by the Gecko rendering engine from Firefox. It is used for creating and editing HTML pages, EPUB documents, and web content with support for HTML5, CSS3, SVG, MathML, and responsive design. The editor features a dual-view mode showing both WYSIWYG and source code simultaneously, built-in CSS editing, accessibility checking (WCAG, ARIA), template management, and tools for publishing via HTTP PUT. BlueGriffon has been used by universities, governments and public administrations worldwide, and was officially recommended by the French Government for web authoring in the public sector.

BlueGriffon has been abandoned by its developer and is no longer maintained or supported. The latest version is 3.1, and multiple sources confirm the project is discontinued with no further development planned. No native Apple Silicon build has ever been released, and the current Intel-only version will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028). If you rely on BlueGriffon for web authoring, you should begin exploring alternatives now. For a similar free, lightweight web editor with active native Apple Silicon support, consider Bluefish or RapidWeaver. If you need EPUB editing specifically, Sigil is a well-maintained free open-source alternative that runs natively on M-series Macs. For more full-featured web design, professional tools like Adobe Dreamweaver or Webflow (web-based) are actively supported, though these are commercial options.
