Can I browse a web page by PyCharm?
The web page is not in local but say, such as yahoo.com. I want to take a look without changing the focused window in my computer.

Short answer: No
Long answer: You used to have one but...
We used to have built-in browser in IDEA had to abandon it - it turned out that external browser was the better choice since
a) external browser is closer to the one needed for your target (e.g. targeting Chrome, Mobile Safari / Opera, etc)
b) embedded browser does not live well with Swing application (e.g. focus quirks).
It is worth mentioning you can view the raw HTML of a web page by going to: File > Open URL...

There is an off chance that someone wrote a plugin for it (I glanced and didn't see anything) but who knows ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Also! Thanks for accepting & upvoting... people rarely do nowadays :(
