The foundation of the Web was laid in the late eighties. The Web works on interlinked hypertext documents that we can access using the Internet. A browser plays a vital role in reading and converting these hypertext documents into a readable and more meaningful format, which we call web pages. HTML5 is the hypertext document which the browser reads and renders for us. The browser not only reads and renders but also creates a Document Object Model (DOM) for us so that we can read and manipulate the structure easily. Dynamic manipulation of the DOM can be achieved by the JavaScript language, which is a standard scripting language for HTML. A server plays a vital role in the functioning of the Web. We mainly consider the Web to be divided into two parts: client and server. Client is considered to be the browser whereas server is the one who gives client the data.
Let's see how the Web works:
In a nutshell, this is how the Web works. Browsers and servers are the most important entities of the Web. Browsers have engines that read HTML files and render web applications in the way HTML files are described. Different browsers such as Blink, Trident, Gecko, WebKit, and so on, have different engines to render the HTML of a page. Now servers are the one who are storing all the data and providing the same on user request.
