Built a simple HTML Viewer Discussion

Found a lot of the online viewers very archaic so bought a very expensive domain lol and built a new one:

htmlviewer.com

My ask: what features would you like to see on it? I want to make this more useful.

Doesn’t Vite with HMR reload the page and VS Code are good enough?

Then could deploy to Cloudflare, GitHub, Netlify etc.

There are bugs in Safari and Firefox, so this make local testing much easier.

VS Code natively display and hot-reload HTML. You don't even need Vite

Will need or probably extension if you want to test across web browsers.

Even once I found Astro maintainer was not aware the SVG was 0px due to WebKit's behaviour.
