Understanding the HTML Viewer & Live Preview
Our HTML Viewer is a lightweight browser-based sandbox for viewing, editing and sharing HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Everything happens locally inside your browser, giving you instant live previews without uploads, accounts or complicated development tools.
What Is an Online HTML Viewer?
An online HTML Viewer lets you write or paste HTML and immediately see the rendered result inside your browser. It combines editing and live preview into a single workspace, making it ideal for testing layouts, experimenting with CSS, and validating JavaScript behaviour.
Unlike a traditional development environment, there's nothing to install or configure. Open the page, start typing, and see your changes update instantly.
Private by Design
Everything runs entirely within your browser using a sandboxed iframe. Your HTML, CSS and JavaScript never leave your device, are never uploaded to our servers, and aren't stored in a database.
Instant Live Preview
Your code is rendered using an iframe `srcdoc` model, allowing the preview to update in real time as you type. Thereβs no refresh, no compilation step, and no server request β everything runs locally in your browser.
Share Without Uploading
Clicking Copy Share Link encodes your entire document into the URL hash using Base64. This allows the full preview state to be restored instantly, without storing anything on a server.
