Live HTML Editor & Viewer
Write HTML, CSS, and Inline JavaScript with instant real-time preview rendering.
How to Master HTML Editing
HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the backbone of the web. Whether you are a seasoned developer debugging a specific component or a student learning the basics of web structure, having an instant feedback loop is crucial. This Online HTML Editor provides a sandbox environment where you can type code and immediately see the visual result, removing the need to constantly save files and refresh your browser.
<html>, <head>, or <body> tags in this editor. The previewer automatically treats your input as the body content. However, you can use <style> tags to add CSS!
Core Features of the Editor
- Real-Time Rendering: As you type, the preview pane updates instantly. This allows you to catch syntax errors, like unclosed tags, immediately.
- CSS Support: You can style your elements using standard CSS within
<style>tags. Experiment with flexbox, grids, and responsive layouts safely. - Local Auto-Save: Accidental refresh? No problem. The editor saves your current code to your browser's local storage, so your work is waiting for you when you return.
Common HTML Elements to Try
If you are new to coding, start by experimenting with these fundamental tags:
- Headings: Use <h1> through <h6> to define titles and subtitles.
- Paragraphs: Wrap your text in <p> tags to create distinct blocks of text.
- Links: Use the anchor tag <a href="url"> to create hyperlinks.
- Images: Embed visuals using <img src="link.jpg" />.
- Lists: Organize data using unordered lists (<ul>) or ordered lists (<ol>).
Why Use a Browser-Based Editor?
Traditional development environments require installing heavy software like VS Code or Sublime Text. While those are powerful, they are often overkill for quick tests or learning sessions. A browser-based HTML editor allows you to test micro-interactions—like a button hover effect or a specific grid layout—in isolation. It isolates the code from the rest of your website's stylesheet, ensuring that what you see is exactly what your code produces.
