Some important definitions (Starting with “B” alphabet)

Bandwidth: The maximum data transfer rate of a network or internet connection, typically measured in bits per second (bps).Base64: A binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format by converting it into a radix-64 representation.Baseline: In typography, the imaginary line on which characters sit. In web development, it can refer to the baseline grid or the initial rendering state of a webpage.Beacon: A small piece of data sent from a web browser to a server to track user activities, typically used for analytics and performance monitoring.Bézier curve: A mathematically defined curve used in computer graphics and animation, commonly for drawing smooth curves between points.bfcache (Back/Forward Cache): A browser cache mechanism that stores a webpage’s state when users navigate away from it using back or forward buttons, allowing faster page loads upon return.BiDi (Bidirectional): Refers to text or scripts that are written and read in two directions, such as Arabic or Hebrew.BigInt: A built-in JavaScript object that provides a way to represent whole numbers larger than the Number type can reliably represent.Binding: The association between a variable and its value or a function and its scope in programming.Bitwise flags: A technique in programming where individual bits within a binary number represent boolean values, used for efficient storage and manipulation of multiple boolean variables.Blink: The rendering engine used by the Google Chrome web browser, known for its speed and efficiency.Block: In programming and web development, a section of code or markup that is grouped together and treated as a unit.Block cipher mode of operation: Techniques used in cryptography to operate block ciphers securely, such as ECB, CBC, CFB, and OFB modes.Block-level content: HTML elements that create block-level boxes on webpages, typically used for structuring content.Boolean: A data type that can have one of two possible values, usually denoted as true or false.Bounding Box: In computer graphics and image processing, the smallest rectangle that can completely contain a geometric shape or an image.Breadcrumb: A navigational aid typically used in websites to show the user’s location within the site’s hierarchy, often presented as a trail of clickable links.Brotli compression: A data compression algorithm developed by Google, designed to be more efficient than traditional algorithms like gzip.Browser: A software application used to access and view websites and webpages on the internet.Browsing context: An environment in which documents are presented to the user, such as a tab or window in a web browser.Buffer: A temporary storage area, often used in computing to hold data temporarily while it is being transferred between locations or processes.

These definitions cover a range of topics related to web development, programming, networking, and computing in general.
