Hosting websites off a desktop can be troublesome. Your computer must
stay on all the time (or at least at the times when the website should
be accessible), you have to get a static IP, or use a dynamic DNS
service, and that’s assuming your ISP won’t hate you for hosting a
website. It might be better to use an actual server instead.
If all you want is to check how your 'site' looks perhaps it'd be much
simpler to simply point your browser to your parent html file rather
than set up a server machine to serve it:
file:///home/yourusername/yoursubdirectory/index.html
It'll look exactly the same as it would if you were running it on a
server.
(or am I missing something?)
