At its core, a web browser is a program that reads and interprets web pages,
and then displays them onscreen. At a deeper level a web browser is a program
for requesting and receiving files using the HyperText Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) and interpreting HyperText Markup Language (HTML).
On top of this most basic function of a web browser, many layers of complexity
and additional features have been built. The web browser has enabled the
Web to become a universal computing platform; it’s making installable software
and monolithic desktop operating systems a thing of the past.
