23,559 PointsYou can utilize basic CSS and HTML in pretty much the same way on your local computer as you can in Workspaces. I would recommend that you use another editor like Brackets, Atom, or even VS Code to do localized development, as they are geared more toward that than Notepad++ is, have abundant extensions and a clean, modernized interface, but technically any text editor can write HTML and CSS as long as you save the files with the proper extension (*.css, *.html, etc.) and link the files together properly.
