Using Workspace - Index.html problem

I have typed and done exactly what the video shows, however whenever I try to preview it, it comes up:

Index of / ā€¢ Index.html

and none of my changes are there, is this a problem with the site or is there something I am missing? Thanks for the time.

Hello! :)

I can simulate your problem and what fixed it for me was naming the html file "index.html" (without the quotes). It would seem that leaving the file name as "untitled.html" gives the error you mentioned above.

Hope this helps! Let me know if I need to be more clear!
