A report on World Wide Web, Web browser, Website and Hypertext Transfer Protocol

A web browser (also referred to as an Internet browser or simply a browser) is application software for accessing the World Wide Web or a local website.

Documents and downloadable media are made available to the network through web servers and can be accessed by programs such as web browsers.

When a user requests a web page from a particular website, the web browser retrieves the necessary content from a web server and then displays the page on the user's device.

HTTP is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web, where hypertext documents include hyperlinks to other resources that the user can easily access, for example by a mouse click or by tapping the screen in a web browser.

All publicly accessible websites collectively constitute the World Wide Web.

The app used on these devices is called a web browser.

The information in the Web is transferred across the Internet using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

In Hypertext Transfer Protocol technical texts, web browsers (and other clients) are commonly referred to as user agents.

Multiple web resources with a common theme and usually a common domain name make up a website.

Before the introduction of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), other protocols such as File Transfer Protocol and the gopher protocol were used to retrieve individual files from a server.

A web browser, for example, may be the client whereas a process, named web server, running on a computer hosting one or more websites may be the server.
