It can be written where you would write html. Difference being that to start and end html, you use "<html>" and "</html>". For php you start and end it with "<?php" and "?>" (not including " ") Just remember that you have to save your files as .php. Also, dont worry about the filetype as it won't change how you write normal html and css in there.

No , it needs a compiler. You may use xampp or wampp for creating localhost on your computer or laptop and put your programs on it and open them by localhost address (127.0.0.1) in a browser
