Summary

Once the HTML code is written, save the file with the .html extension and then open it through the browser to see the results. The edit, save, and refresh cycle is the fastest way to learn because every change is instantly noticeable. For projects that use a particular fetch or path, run a simple local server to behave like a real hosting.

Key points

Save HTML files with .html extensions and UTF-8 encoding
Open the file directly in the browser or through the local server
Do a refresh after you save the changes to see the latest results
Use DevTools to check for elements, and errors
Local servers are required when a page loads data with a fetch
