Newbie VSCode Running Locally Problem

have simple web page that I was able to run locally in chrom on local host 8080. Now I try and run it and I get error... Localhost refused to connect... I don't believe I changed anything.. What do I need to do here?

uhm

Pobiega•6/22/24, 2:01 PM

so for starters, this is a C# discord

and second, html isnt.. runnable code, so to speak

Pobiega•6/22/24, 2:02 PM

you'd normally just use a vscode extension to start a local webserver to host it, if its just straight html

Pobiega•6/22/24, 2:02 PM

LiveServer is the one I use for similar purposes

PPobiega uhm

Thank you. I believe I did have that extension. Maybe I turned it off accidently. How do I start that?

I guess I did not have that installed. I just installed it. How do I direct my page to it?

Pobiega•6/22/24, 2:11 PM

what do you mean?

Pobiega•6/22/24, 2:11 PM

you click the button, it gives you a URL

Pobiega•6/22/24, 2:12 PM

you click the url

PPobiega what do you mean?

danno8524OP•6/22/24, 2:16 PM

Got it. Thank you. In the plug in header it shows a duel panel of your code and the live server... You can make html changes and they show immediately in LiveServer?

dont think it has live reload by default
