How to view an HTML file in the browser with Visual Studio Code

Question

With the new Microsoft Visual Studio Code, how can I view my HTML code in a browser?

Notepad++ includes the option to run in a browser. How can I accomplish the same thing in Visual Studio Code?

Answer 1

to get this working on a mac trying using this:

{
    "version": "0.1.0",
    "command": "Chrome",
    "osx": {
        "command": "/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome"
    },
    "args": [
        "${file}"
    ]
}

If you have chrome already open, it will launch your html file in a new tab.
