Guil saves his code and then can view it in the browser. How do you set that up with Sublime 2?

I am simply trying to find out how to render my code in a real browser like Guil is doing. I've used Workspaces in the past, but don't see that as an option in this deep dive. Is there a simple way to do this? I like to follow along coding with the instructor.

Hey Samuel,

If you haven't already, download Sublime Text. Then you can create a folder on your Desktop, or wherever you'd like to keep all of your files. Within this folder, you can recreate the file structure of Workspaces. A folder for CSS, a folder for images, and so on. You can open up Sublime Text and save a file into your folder and call it index.html. Then you can open that file in the web browser and code your heart out.

If you're viewing the file on your browser, whenever you refresh your page (command + R), you should be able to see your changes. If you have the LiveReload Plugin for Chrome, you don't even have to refresh your browser, but I like being able to reload manually personally.
