# Getting Sublime 3 To Launch your HTML page in a Browser with a Key Combo

I recently installed Sublime 3 Beta and created an .HTML file and wanted to launch it in Chrome from within the IDE without right-clicking the file and selecting “Open From Browser”. I wanted to simply hit a key combo. I looked through all of the options and could not find a way. I discovered that you could add a new build system though and get this functionality.

## Steps

• Tools -> Build
• System -> New Build System...
• Add the following Text

for opening with Google Chrome
{
"cmd": ["C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe", "$file"]
}

• Save the file as : Chrome.sublime-build in your “User Folder”
• Now select

Tools –> Build System –> chrome and switch back to the HTML file and hit CMD-B on a Mac.

What about Windows?

For Windows Machines following the same instructions except use the command : { "cmd": ["PATH_TO_YOUR_CHROME" "$file"] }

You can run it by pressing CTRL-B.
