Browsers

-

 A browser is an application through which users can access the World Wide Web, read and retrieve its content for presentation. A browser generally translates web resources, probably written in HTML and other Web languages, into a human-readable form, allowing users to interact with websites, services, and multimedia.



Key Features of Browsers:-

  • Rendering Web Pages: Converts HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into a visual display.
  • Navigation Tools: Provides features such as back, forward, refresh, bookmarks, and address bars.
  • Extensions/Add-ons: The tool enhances functionality with ad-blockers, password managers, and themes.
  • Privacy and Security: Provides features like incognito mode, HTTPS support, and anti-tracking.
  • Developer Tools: Built-in debugging and inspection tools for developers to analyze and modify web pages.


Popular Browser:-
  1. Google Chrome: It is fast and widely used and supports extensions, which sync across devices.
  2. Mozilla Firefox: It is a privacy-based, customizable, and open-source development tool.
  3. Safari: Optimized for Apple devices with an emphasis on speed and battery efficiency.
  4. Microsoft Edge: Based on Chromium and comes with Windows integration and performance.
  5. Opera: Known for its data-saving mode and a built-in VPN.
  6. Brave: Privacy-centric browser that blocks ads and rewards for viewing ads.

 How Browsers Work
  •   URL Entry: The user types a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) into the address bar.
  •   DNS Resolution: The browser contacts a DNS server to find the IP address of the requested site.
  • HTTP/HTTPS Request: The Browser makes a request to the web server hosting the site.
  •   Rendering Process:
  1.   HTML Parsing: Builds the DOM (Document Object Model) tree.
  2.   CSS Parsing: Styles the DOM elements.
  3.   JavaScript Execution: Adds interactivity.
  4.   Display: The processed content is displayed as a readable webpage.
