Homesite doesn't come with RDS, Datasource integration, or the debugger -
all of which are included with Studio. Homesite is designed to write HTML,
Studio is designed to write CF.
However, if Studio is too pricey, you can get by quite well with Homesite,
and many people do.

Subject: RE: A Great Free CFML editor
When you buy Studio, you're buying more than a tag editor ... you're buyinga
single-server license for the CF server and all of the Cold Fusion
documentation. To me, it's worth it.
But there is a cheaper alternative: Buy HomeSite. You don't get the CF
docs. You don't get the server. But you did get all of the CF tag support,
all of the functionality of CF Studio. Coding wise, you can do anything in
HomeSite that you can do in Studio. With RDS and Remote FTP, you can pretty
easily work on documents on a remote server for development, if you have
access to one. And you can download CF Express and do much of your coding
locally.
As for this freebie ... interesting comments on some of its problems. It's
obviously not a perfect tool, but I will be recommending it to my students
and a no-cost alternative to Studio/HomeSite. For somebody first starting
out, it's not a bad tool from what I can see.
