- Snippet from Wikipedia: Web browser
A web browser is an application for accessing websites. When a user requests a web page from a particular website, the browser retrieves its files from a web server and then displays the page on the user's screen. Browsers are used on a range of devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. In 2020, an estimated 4.9 billion people have used a browser. The most-used browser is Google Chrome, with a 64% global market share on all devices, followed by Safari with 19%.
A web browser is not the same thing as a search engine, though the two are often confused. A search engine is a website that provides links to other websites. However, to connect to a website's server and display its web pages, a user must have a web browser installed. In some technical contexts, browsers are referred to as user agents.
Web Browsers: Brave Browser, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Chromium, Vivaldi Browser, Opera, Safari. Browser Extensions - Browser Plugins, Browser Developer Tools, Vertical Tabs, Browser Troubleshooting (Browser Cache, Waiting for Cache), Browser Security, Browser Exploits.
