Answer from AI

Main browser engines (renderers) used in popular browsers:

  • Blink — a fork of WebKit, used in Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge (after switching to Chromium), Opera, Brave.
  • WebKit — the engine of Safari and older versions of Chrome (before switching to Blink).
  • Gecko — the engine of Mozilla Firefox.
  • Trident — an outdated engine of Internet Explorer.
  • EdgeHTML — the engine of the old Microsoft Edge before switching to Chromium.

Each engine is responsible for parsing HTML, CSS, JavaScript, rendering the page, and interacting with the DOM and other web standards.
