How to change my url from https://example.com/name.html to https://example.com/name?

Question

How to change my url from https://example.com/name.html to https://example.com/name? I am using Firebase Hosting to host my website. The site is made in HTML and javascript using bootstrap studio.

After reading various solution online, i know that '.htaccess' file can be used to change the url but none of the solution provide a way to do it with Firebase Hosting.

What do you mean by "change your url"? If you just want the file at /name.html to also appear at /name, you can probably use rewrites. — robsiemb

Firebase Hosting has a setting called cleanUrls that controls the presence/absence of the HTML extension. See the documentation on controlling .html extensions:

The cleanUrls attribute allows you to control whether or not URLs should include the .html extension.

When true, Hosting automatically drops the .html extension from uploaded file URLs. If an .html extension is added in the request, Hosting performs a 301 redirect to the same path but eliminates the .html extension.

Specify the inclusion of .html extensions by including a cleanUrls attribute within hosting in your firebase.json file. For example:

"hosting": {
   // ...

   // Add the "cleanUrls" attribute within "hosting"
   "cleanUrls": true
}
