+description: Announcing the new GenAIScript view.
+---
+
+In the past, our Visual Studio Code visualization has relied on the built-in Markdown preview feature. It's been working great but sometimes it's not enough. We wanted to provide a more interactive experience for our users. So we decided to build a custom webview for GenAIScript.

+## Accessing the view outside of Visual Studio Code
+
+As a result of this change, you can now access the GenAIScript view outside of Visual Studio Code. This means you can now **run** your scripts in a browser or any other webview-capable application.
+
+Launch the [serve](/genaiscript/reference/cli/serve) command from the [cli](/genaiscript/reference/cli) to start the server and follow the instructions to open the view in your browser.
+
+```sh
+npx --yes genaiscript serve
+```
