HTML file

Browser-readable code document

An HTML file is a document containing Hypertext Markup Language code—the standard format for web pages.

When you open an HTML file in a browser, it renders as a formatted page with text, images, and links.

The file extension is typically .html or .htm: Save the document as an HTML file before uploading it to the server.
