Both of those are dying programs.

Yep Jonathan Grieve Adobe has "feature-froze" Fireworks after CS6. They are no longer actively developing anything for it. They claim they'll do small patches to keep it up to date with OS requirements. We'll see how long it survives, but with Adobe moving their attention away from it, it'll be dying.

Kinda sad too, I actually like what Fireworks could do.

alright whats the new programs that make the desighning much easier?

I''m a fan of Google Web Designer. I haven't touched Dreamweaver for a long long time, and I used to swear by it.

For a code editor, I use to use dreamweaver but now I use Sublime Text. I enjoy Sublime more.

For wireframes and SVG creation I use Illustrator, and I might screw with colors in Photoshop, but a lot of my design now is just done in the browser.

Most people just use text editors, and as a time saver use frameworks like boot camp.

If you are looking for a Fireworks replacement check out Adobe's Edge Reflow.

I recommend Sketch to replace Fireworks towards building interfaces.

I highly recommend adopting rapid prototyping practices to negate the use of either towards making websites.
