Okay, I’m a newbie (ex dreamweaver wordpress user) … looking to cash in on these black friday deals… picked up Impact, Aspen, Stacks and an updated Rapidweaver for my new imac. To catch this sale, I know I can research it but nothing’s better than hearing from experienced users: Foundation vs Foundry … which one is easier, most flexible and has decipherable documentation. Thanks loads in advance. BTW: Does Foundry or foundation have a black friday special too ? ---

That question has been asked and answered many times on the Forum. This discussion was comprehensive : > [@Foundry or Foundation, what is more complete and future proof?](http://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/foundry-or-foundation-what-is-more-complete-and-future-proof/37801): > > I am about to start changing my websites as themes I bought just don’t give me the flexibility I would like to have. I understood there is not much of difference between Foundation 6 and Foundry 2, as I have quite a few stacks and plugins like Formloom I would still like to keep on using them. What would you recommend, it needs to be complete as possible and have not a lot of issues with learning a new system. What will be the future? I look forward to your opinions! ---
