Installation

To start a project, you need a web server. Either locally or hosted. If you want the easy way, you can host your project right here on GitHub.

Why can I not just open index.html, without a Webserver

Browser are very strict about security nowadays, and have disabled many features, if they think they are not used securely. For example, loading an external library, from the local disk, is seen as insecure. When working with HTML, you will find out, once you get into Javascript, very quickly, you need a local webserver, due to blocking of features due to security.
This is unfortunately the status of Browsers in 2023.

So you have 2 main options.

  1. Install a local webserver
  2. Host your HTML page. For example right here on Github

Local Webserver

There are many webservers you can choose to install. I recommend, start with something simple. Here are some nice instructions that can help you get started: Installing a simple webserver locally / Mozilla.org

Hosted, using Github

  1. Sign Up
  2. Make a new repository
  3. Upload the files in the Zip, you just downloaded
  4. Enable "Pages" option from GitHub.
