PagePatch - HTML File Editor

Edit local HTML files directly in Chrome with rich formatting tools and save changes as the same file or a copy.

PagePatch lets you edit local HTML files directly in Chrome — no separate editor needed. Open any HTML file in the browser, click the extension icon, and toggle edit mode. The page becomes editable instantly, and a floating toolbar appears with everything you need to make changes visually. WHY INSTALL PAGEPATCH? If you work with HTML files — class notes, saved web pages, documentation, reports, or quick prototypes — you no longer need to switch between a code editor and a browser to make simple changes. Open the file in Chrome, edit it right there, and save. That's it.

When you save, PagePatch cleans up all its own UI elements so your saved file contains only your content — clean HTML, no leftover editor artifacts. PRIVACY & SECURITY PagePatch makes no network requests, collects no data, and includes no analytics or telemetry. All code runs locally in your browser. The extension only reads the HTML of pages you choose to edit, and only writes files to locations you explicitly select in the Save dialog. __________________________________________ Version 0.5.0 — release notes Style presets for callouts, cards, and button links; a built-in icon picker; light/dark toolbar themes; and a redesigned image insert panel with drag-and-drop support. __________________________________________ Version 0.6.2 — release notes New font family control plus split apply/dropdown pickers for block format, font size, and font family.
