ColdFusion Studio
ColdFusion Studio (now bundled in with Macromedia's Dreamweaver) is the recommended editor for developing ColdFusion applications.
Like a static Web site, a ColdFusion application is essentially a collection of pages. But unlike the pages in a static Web site, the pages in a ColdFusion application contain both HTML and a tag-based server scripting language, ColdFusion Markup Language(CFML). When the ColdFusion pages are requested, the CFML tags are processed on the server, then an HTML page is dynamically generated and returned to the browser.
Macromedia's Dreamweaver
