Visual Studio Code Question

Not sure if this fits in this category, but can’t find a category for development software. I’m trying out the example code they give you for your first project in Visual Studio Code, but I can’t find where it says index.html so I can double click and open the file in a web browser. All it’s showing me is the file that I created. Do I have to create the index.html file? Also noticed that the image next to the file I created (Hello World.html) is different than the image that is supposed to appear next to the index.html file. How do I get an index.html file to show up and/or how do I open the file in a web browser? Here’s a picture of what it looks like.

It’s not something that I’ve attempted but do you have a link to the lesson/project? Even the folks that have finished a course might not remember each step.

Hello! As far as I know, index.html is just what you name the file you’re using. There are no intrinsic properties. However, if you did want it to be called index.html, I suppose you could rename the file you’re writing in.
