Question 1

What is an interactive HTML editor?

Accepted Answer

An interactive HTML editor lets you edit a web page visually — clicking elements, dragging blocks, and changing styles — instead of writing raw HTML by hand. This editor runs entirely in your browser, renders your HTML live, and saves changes back to your local file.

Question 2

Is this HTML editor free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is 100% free, open source (MIT license), with no signup, no upload, and no server. Your files never leave your computer.

Question 3

Which browsers support live local file editing?

Accepted Answer

Live local file editing uses the File System Access API, supported by Chrome, Edge, Arc, and other Chromium-based browsers. Safari and Firefox fall back to import/export.

Question 4

Can I edit HTML without writing code?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Click any element to select it, drag blocks from the sidebar to add new content, double-click text to edit it inline, and use the properties panel to change typography, layout, spacing, background, borders, and effects — no code required.

Question 5

How is this different from VS Code or a plain text editor?

Accepted Answer

Plain text editors show you code. This is a visual HTML editor and renderer — it shows you the rendered page and lets you edit it directly, more like Webflow or Pinegrow but free and browser-based. You can still drop into a source-code mode (CodeMirror) when you want byte-level control.
