A web browser, or simply "browser," is an application used to access and view websites. Common web browsers include Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari. The primary function of a web browser is to render HTML, the code used to design or "mark up" webpages.

When a user launches a Universal Resource Locator (URL) on a browser, it hits the respective domain web server and launches the web pages which are required by the user. The below image illustrates the workflow of the launch of the website.
