so I started the terminal on my mac and used cd and ls commands to get to the folder where the index.html is in. I have selected the folder called HTML and then typed in the
$ python -m http.server 8000 command for Python 3.
After connecting to the local server i openend the localhost in my browser and nothing shows up - why?
