This book is the essential description of how they work and how that impacts web developers and other software engineers whose work touches the web. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eReaders of \u003cem\u003eWeb Browser Engineering\u003c\/em\u003e will join the authors in building their own web browser, including rich visual effects, multithreaded architecture, JavaScript APIs, and comprehensive security policies. Web browser engines are filled with unique challenges, interesting algorithms, and clever optimizations. Building a browser is both easy and incredibly hard, both intentional and accidental, and everywhere you look, you see the evolution and history of the web wrapped up in one codebase. It's both fun, and endlessly interesting. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis interactive and engaging book will be a unique source for any software engineer, computer scientist, web developer, or simply anyone with an interest in web browsers and how they work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence.
