Upstream

Looks like @ian-r-rose is implementing this upstream:
jupyterlab/jupyterlab#5855

Don't mean to step on your toes @timkpaine, and what I have done is definitely less featureful than your extension here. My primary goal is to get a reasonable live-editing of local HTML documents. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the PR against core JupyterLab.

I'm working on proxying #31

I don't have any interest in a html viewer, only the ability to view other sites. Ideally this will allow http over https and vice versa. So i think for now this is more of a replacement for jupyterlab_html not this package.

I just opened this issue as a user of Tim's extension. Thanks for chiming in - it helps me know whether or not I still need to install this extension as well as the upstream version...

My PR has some overlap with this extension, but I've been waffling about whether to keep it there. The iframe-ing will certainly work better with a proxy like the one here.
