How do what to view, the code or the output?

Firefox is used for html files etc. but for the code use any text editor or download a more GUI pretty app like notepad++

If you have Firefox as your default browser, just double click the HTML file on your system and it will open. You can also use the Alt menubar to File › Open… or use Ctrl + O keyboard shortcut. Or just drag&drop the file onto Firefox window or icon.

To view the page source, the context menu has a "View Page Source" item, or just press Ctrl + U.
