It's like Dreamweaver, a way of building HTML page websites. I haven't used it in a long time but 5 years ago it was one of the top 3 visual web authoring apps - NetObjects, Dreamweaver and SiteSpinner.
It's a one-way app that works in real code then exports to HTML (or it was at that time). This means it's easier to work with than a native-HTML app like Dreamweaver. However that system means it's also very poor at importing HTML pages and working with them (or it was).
Like Dreamweaver, you build your web pages then FTP them up to the server. It's a good system if you have a lot of time to learn how to use the app; if you have a very small site; or if you are a pro and use it every day, as it won't be so hard to get good results then, as it will be for most people.
It's a step backward if you know how to use database-driven webapps like WordPress or CMS-MS though. You can get a bigger, better site up there in a fraction of the time using a CMS. I can't advise going back to the HTML web page system except for building 1 to 6 page microsites - although for that purpose it's vital.
