This document discusses browser caching and techniques to improve website performance through caching. Browser caching involves temporarily storing recently visited web pages on a user's hard disk to load them faster during the same browsing session. Making fewer HTTP requests, adding expires headers, using content delivery networks, and leveraging browser caching directives like Cache-Control can help optimize caching. Common file types like CSS, JavaScript, images that should be cached are also mentioned. The document provides details on various caching strategies and their benefits like reducing bandwidth usage and loading websites faster.
