Here’s a list of 5 HTML IDE extensions for Google Chrome which you can use to write HTML code inside Google Chrome. Not all of the extensions that we’re gonna be talking about are full fledged HTML IDEs, but majority of them allow you to manipulate HTML in one way or another, so you could say that they are very close to being a HTML IDE.

We recently talked about some free websites to learn HTML. So, now, if you want to practice what you have learnt, you can quickly use Google Chrome as HTML IDE with this extensions.

Editor Lite

Editor Lite is a fully functional WYSIWYG HTML IDE extension for Google Chrome. It of course cannot be compared to advanced editors, like, Dreamweawer or Dreamweaver alternative, but it can be quite useful for those who aren’t very familiar with HTML.
