At first I was being sent to chrome for live preview and the page was blank. Then I started getting an error message that read: "Open an HTML file or make sure there is an index.html file in your project in order to launch live preview."

Other files I have done live preview just fine. I cannot see what is wrong with the code. I searched posts here for a solution, but could not find anything. This was the closest, but it was referring to a php file. Brackets - Live Preview not working

@user3510681,

I ran your code normally in the browser and the page appeared blank. Upon reviewing the code, I see that you have not closed the 'title' tag in your HTML. Your code:

<title>Design Sandbox<title>

This is why Brackets - Live Preview is not working .Please change the title code as below and things should work fine:

<title>Design Sandbox</title>

Cheers!!
