Most web browsers store web pages and images that we browse on the Internet. The web browsers cache (meaning, temporarily store) these files for a short time in your computer.
If we revisit a pre-visited web page while these files are still in the cache, the web browser retrieves the files from the disk cache instead of getting these files from the web site. This can significantly speed up web browsing, but it may not render the updated web page in some cases.
