How Do You Access A Friends Minecraft World When They're Offline?

Question

So I am on Minecraft playing on my friends world (Not server). However, they won't go online for no reason. I want to go continue my work on that world and not start brand new on survival again. I've already made a lot of progress and would not like to lose it, can somebody help? I've already tried to get answers but they are either too complicated or for servers like IP.

The world has to be hosted somewhere in order for you to access it. Your friend would either have to keep their computer on or rent a server from a Minecraft server host.

You can do one of the following:

Have your friend leave their device on and running Minecraft
Have your friend keep their device on and run a Dedicated Server (Host device must be Windows 10 or Ubuntu), and keep in mind the app must be running for the server to constantly run
Purchase a Realms subscription (both of you must have an active realms subscriptions)
Rent a server from some server Minecraft hosting company (These are unofficial, so be wise in your decision)
