We've been reading the final proof of Web Browser Engineering. I'm amazed: it is 512 pages long, way longer than it felt while writing it. Publication is getting closer by the day!

Code report: Day 5 Browsey: Implement the chapter 5 of @BrowserBook. Now the logic has become very complicated. So, I decided to read this book in a research paper way. DSA: Solved the 3 problem. I get the more clarity in my head for dsa now. Logic will get better with time.

After my last post, many folks reached out to understand in-depth technical details of browsers. I would suggest going through browser.engineering book. It is an incredible resource and gives a structured approach. Highly recommended!

WBE is almost done! We just published What Wasn't Covered, with all of the other parts of a browser that we just couldn't fit in. And there's also a post-script and a new glossary, all working toward publishing on paper sometime soon. Stay tuned! browser.engineering/skipped.html

Chapter 15 is here! Images and iframes introduce performance and security concerns that impact browser architecture, but they also build on and extend existing concepts like event loops, rendering, and accessibility in an elegant way. browser.engineering/embeds.html (c/p from Mastodon)
