Need to quickly inspect the HTML structure of a webpage or test a snippet of code? An online HTML viewer that lets you Import URLs, preview designs can be very efficient. Instead of digging through browser developer tools for a quick look, you can often paste a URL, and the tool will fetch and display the HTML, allowing you to view or even edit it.
