About Source Code Viewer

Source Code Viewer loads a public URL and shows the raw HTML source so you can inspect markup without browser menus. Developers searching "view page source online" or "HTML source viewer" use it when teaching, debugging meta tags, or checking rendered structure from another device.

Enter a page URL and load the source. What you see is the response HTML from the fetch perspective - client-side rendered apps may differ from the DOM after JavaScript runs in a full browser.

Only request sites you are allowed to access. Do not use this to attack, scrape against terms, or bypass authentication. Private pages behind login will not yield useful source without credentials.

An inspection helper - not a full headless browser with authenticated sessions.

Benefits of Source Code Viewer

Frequently asked questions

Why does this differ from Inspect Element?

Inspect Element shows the live DOM after JavaScript; this focuses on fetched source HTML.

Can it view logged-in pages?

Not without the same authentication context - public URLs work best.

Does it execute JavaScript?

Source viewing is about markup retrieval, not full app execution.

Is scraping allowed?

Respect robots rules, terms of service, and the law.

What about HTTPS pages?

Public HTTPS URLs can be requested like any normal browser navigation the server allows.
