1
Check whether index.html has dependencies
Open the file and look for linked CSS, JavaScript, images, fonts, or other local files. If those exist, keep them with the HTML file.

How to preview index.html online
An index.html file is usually the entry point for a static page or site. To preview it online, publish the file by itself or upload the full static project as a ZIP.
Steps
2
Upload as HTML or ZIP
Upload a standalone index.html file directly, or upload a ZIP that contains index.html at the correct project level.
3
Review the browser link
Open the preview URL and verify that styles, scripts, images, and navigation behave as expected.
Practical tips
- Put index.html at the top level of the ZIP when possible.
- Preserve folder names such as assets, css, js, and images.
- Use relative paths instead of machine-specific local paths.
- Share the preview URL rather than the file path.
Turn the HTML into a link
HTMLShare publishes static HTML files and ZIP projects as browser preview links, so reviewers can open the page without downloading files or running a local server.
