How browsers work

Unproofread notes

Came across this post from Dmytro Krasun where mentioned publishing a new interactive blog post he wrote about how browsers work. By the way, it's an open-source project and here's the GitHub repo for that. The topics that explained in an interactive way are:

  • How browsers work with URLs
  • URLs turning into HTTP requests
  • Resolving server addresses
  • Establishing TCP connections
  • HTTP requests and responses
  • Parsing HTML and building the DOM tree, etc.

The website built with Next.js and Tailwind CSS and is hosted at Cloudflare Pages.

I liked the site and how it explains the concept. Also, I noticed that there's no favicon on the site, so I added one and opened a PR on GitHub for adding the site icon 😅. Now, let's see if it gets accepted.
