A browser engine (also known as a layout engine or rendering engine) is a core software component of every major web browser that is responsible for transforming HTML documents and other resources of a web page into an interactive visual representation on a user's device. Common browser engines include Blink, Trident, Gecko, and WebKit.
A web browser is a software application used to access information on the World Wide Web, it retrieves information from other parts of the web and displays it on your desktop or mobile device.
The main function of a browser is to present the web resource you choose by requesting it from the server and displaying it in the browser window. The browser's user interface includes elements such as the address bar, back, and forward buttons, and #bookmarks. The HTML5 specification does not define the UI elements a browser must have but lists some common elements.

A web browser and a search engine are two different types of software that are commonly used to access the internet.
A web browser is a software application that allows users to view and navigate through web pages on the internet. It retrieves information from a web server and displays it on the user's device. The most popular web browsers include #Google #chrome, #Mozilla Firefox, #Microsoft Edge, #Safari, and #Opera.
A search engine, on the other hand, is a software application or a service that allows users to search for and find information on the internet. It uses algorithms to search through billions of web pages and returns the most relevant results to the user's query. The most popular #search engines include #Google, #Bing, #Yahoo, and #DuckDuckGo.
In summary, a web browser is used to view and navigate through web pages, while a search engine is used to find specific information on the internet.
