HTML files are saved in a format of the standard text made up of tags defining the webpage structure. These files are opened or edited with a simple text editor, but generally, source code editors are employed to open HTML files, as it's much easier for developers to edit. 

A web browser is used to parse the source code of HTML, and the user generally doesn't see that. To view the webpage HTML code, you need to choose "View Source" that's accessible from the web browser View menu.
