The Request-Response Cycle

For a website, for example, your browser has to make all these requests (and others):

  1. Request the initial HTML code
  2. Request the CSS file
  3. Request any images (each file is a separate request)
  4. Request any JavaScript files (file is a separate request)
  5. Request any font files (again, each one its own request)
