I am just getting into website development, and am taking a course in school. At my school, we use Dreamweaver but I'm wondering if there are any other Interfaces that incorporate some of the features DreamWeaver has like real time viewing and such. Any help is appreciated and I will +Rep!

Although it's not a drag and drop interface like Dreamweaver, [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] has a live preview option. If you have two (or more) monitors, you can put the browser in one window and while you make changes in the HTML/CSS you'll see the changes on the page in real-time.
The feature is nice and all, but I still prefer Sublime Text for websites. I haven't branched off to try other IDEs and I dislike the drag and drop style like Dreamweaver.
Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference.

Dreamweaver is not an IDE, its software which allows drag and drop and limits use.
One of the best IDE's you can use is NetBeans: this allows you to edit whilst seeing the changes (when you save, it uploads your files).
It comes with one of the best debuggers which tell you where and what your error is.
I'd suggest it to anyone as it is completely free! It's also what I use.

IDEs for web design, HTML and CSS, don't really exist since there isn't really any development going on - just the web rendering engine parsing and rendering your HTML, CSS. You can probably find 'IDEs' but they'll be called so because they probably have JavaScript related debuggers and code suggestion features installed.
I've been doing web development for a number of years and I started with Notepad++ then Sublime and then finally, a few months, ago I switched to Atom. I use colorpicker plugins and mini maps and linters when using it and it's really great.
Try out: Atom, Brackets or even Notepad++. With web design it comes down to personal preference. I would try out brackets but I've kinda dug my feet into Atom and use it for more than just web dev.

Yeah I like using Atom for doing web development, especially if you're using it with Github.

I use Dreamweaver purely because I pay for AdobeCC. However sublime and notepad++ are the best imo if you want to learn how develop websites.
