I just purchased RLM and read the online manual. I think I get the general concepts for creating a responsive layout using this tool. However, before I dig into the details, I'd like to create a "Hello World" kind of first pass that I can integrate with my VS2013 web editor. Is there a tutorial or walk through that explains how to move the html and CSS to my VS environment on my PC - I don't want to publish to my hosting service from this tool as I do that with my FTP tool. Thanks for any advice - RLM looks like a very useful way to get a site started so it's responsive.

Hi Steve,
Thanks, but I did read that and I didn't notice anything about integration with a web editor. Did I miss something?

Responsive Layout Maker creates the backbone of your website and then you export it to any web editor and add your content and images just like you would with any other web page. Just open the exported HTML files in your web editor and start adding your content.

Pretty easy right? ;)

I don't know a lot about Visual Studio Web Editor but if its like most editors you can open any RLMP export. If you are wondering if you can import your current website into RLMP and make adjustments then the answer is no. This tool creates a fully customizable framework that can be edited in any html editor.

Maybe I am missing what your asking? Please elaborate.

Thanks, OK I did the export, I see the files, and will incorporate into VS as my next step. I guess I got the impression from watching another tutorial video that there was some other mechanism at play to sync RLM with a web editor. I'm good with this for now. Thanks for quick replies.
