What is an HTML file?
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser, defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the WHATWG Living Standard. An HTML file consists of plain text tags that structure content into a Document Object Model (DOM), enabling the embedding of scripts (JavaScript), cascading style sheets (CSS), and multimedia. The format has evolved from SGML-based roots to the current HTML5 specification, which includes semantic elements and APIs for complex web applications.
How to open an HTML file
Operating systems universally support HTML rendering via pre-installed web browsers like Microsoft Edge (Windows), Safari (macOS), or Firefox (Linux). For source code modification, developers utilize specialized editors such as Visual Studio Code, IntelliJ IDEA, or Notepad++. No proprietary software is required, as the format is an open, non-proprietary standard text file.

What is a TEX file?
A TEX file is a plain text source document containing typesetting code written in the TeX language, developed by Donald Knuth. It consists of unformatted text combined with program macros and commands (starting with a backslash) that define the document's structure, mathematical notation, and layout. Used primarily in academia and scientific research, TEX files are not WYSIWYG; they must be compiled by a typesetting engine (such as pdfTeX or XeTeX) to produce a rendered output document, typically a PDF or DVI file.
How to open a TEX file
Since TEX files are plain text, they can be opened with any text editor (Notepad, Vim), but specialised LaTeX editors are required to compile and preview the document. TeXworks, TeXShop (macOS), and TeXstudio are popular desktop environments that include syntax highlighting and compiler integration. For a cloud-based solution that avoids local installation, Overleaf is the industry-standard browser-based editor.
