Previewing Pages with Web Contents in a Browser

You can preview a file with Web contents in a browser. This can be the PyCharm default browser specified in the Web Browsers section of the IDE settings or the one of your choice.

To preview an opened file in a Web browser, do one of the following:

  • On the main menu, choose View | Open in Browser. The current file opens in the default browser.
  • With the editor tab having the focus, choose View | Preview file in on the main menu or press Alt+F2. Then select the desired browser from the pop-up menu:
    previewInBrowser1
  • Hover your mouse pointer over the code to show the browser icons bar, and click the icon that indicates the desired browser:
