The Past and Present of Browser Architecture
The browser architecture has undergone a transition from single-process browsers to multi-process browsers. Emphasizing stability, smoothness, and security, processes have been decomposed into rendering, GPU, network, and plugins, improving the cleanliness of the architecture. To review the browser's architecture, it is necessary to further understand the process of opening pages, the page rendering process, and the browser plugin mechanism. By organizing the timeline of Chrome extension versions, especially the transition from Manifest V1 to Manifest V3, one can gain a relatively comprehensive understanding of how browsers have evolved. - pranjal-barnwal | Pranjal Blogs- pranjal-barnwal | Pranjal Kumar, Hazaribag Jharkhand | SWE Bentley Systems
