How to run the .html file in browser?

I have just wrote a javascript file which I ran the via intelliJ using a few different browsers e.g. Google Chrome. This works fine as it runs locally e.g. http://localhost://.

However I want to be able to send it to someone so they just click on the .html file (packaged in correct folder) and it appears on their browser. Is there anyway I can do this? Right now the url points locally e.g. file:///Users/**/project/file.html.

Use a relative path. If your HTML file is in the same folder as the JS file, this means simply including it like so:

<script src="jsfile.js"></script>

If it's in a subdirectory, include all the folders necessary to get there:

<script src="subdirectory1/subdirectory2/jsfile.js"></script>

If it's up a directory, use the .. path:

<script src="../anotherfolder/jsfile.js"></script>

Or just include it in the HTML page itself:

<script>
  // your code here
</script>
