Editing html is good but I really would like to have a way of fast previewing the changes that I made. Is there e.g. a script to open Chromium or refresh a site for that?

You have some options: http://wikemacs.org/wiki/Markdown#Impatient-mode the best for html looking to be impatient-mode, it allows to see the changes in your browser while you type.
After intsallation (in melpa) it is just a matter of
M-x httpd-start
and
M-x impatient-mode
and then open your browser to http://localhost:8080/imp/

This seems to mirror what i see in emacs. I expected my browser to display the rendering of the html document that I am editing.– kidmoseCommented Jan 22, 2021 at 10:31

It is supposed to. Now testing I see a "forbidden" message. Maybe new browser policies prevent it from rendering. I'd like someone to confirm it still works on FF >= 83.– EhvinceCommented Jan 22, 2021 at 10:43
You have many options depending on tools you use and setup you want. The first one does not need anything to be installed:
M-x browse-url-of-buffer- https://github.com/skeeto/skewer-mode
- https://github.com/skeeto/impatient-mode
- https://github.com/yukihr/Warp
