Browser

A browser, or web browser, is a software program that allows users to access, navigate, and interact with websites on the internet. 

Browsers interpret and translate Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript, and other languages files such as PHP to display and present webpages in a legible format for users to interact with. 

Examples of popular web browsers include Google Chrome, Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox.

Browsers enable web designers, developers, and businesses to create and share content for professional and entertainment purposes. They also allow users to perform various operations, including instant messaging, uploading and downloading files, multimedia playback, and accessing other types of computer applications.
