Best Web Development Software

Web development is probably much more than programming. For me it means having plenty of hosting space with tools to create Websites with. I am posting to a few forums where I can get hosting accounts for free. With my shared hosting accounts I usually get cPanel with all of the Web tools to create Websites with. I mostly use WordPress script for static Websites and blogs. Lately I've become a VPS enthusiast and use VestaCP free control panel and WordPress to create Websites.
