  • What are the ways to reduce page loading time? Lazy loading Build optimization minification

  • Why use HTTP 2.0 over HTTP 1.1? HTTP/1.1 loads resources one after the other, so if one resource cannot be loaded, it blocks all the other resources behind it. In contrast, HTTP/2 is able to use a single TCP connection to send multiple streams of data at once so that no one resource blocks any other resource

  • Differentiate between Canvas and SVG.

  • Explain the new APIs provided by HTML5.

5. Explain CORS.
Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) is a browser mechanism which enables controlled access to resources located outside of a given domain.
Browsers allow a web page to make AJAX requests only with in the same domain. Browser security prevents a web page from making AJAX requests to another domain. This is called same origin policy.

------------------------
Difference Between Dynamic & Static Web Pages
Static Web pages display the exact same information whenever anyone visits it. Static Web pages do not have to be simple plain text. 
They can feature detailed multimedia design and even videos. 
However, every visitor to that page will be greeted by the exact same text, multimedia design or video every time he visits the page until you alter that page's source code.

Dynamic Web pages are capable of producing different content for different visitors from the same source code file. 
The website can display different content based on what operating system or browser the visitor is using, whether she is using a PC or a mobile device, 
or even the source that referred the visitor. A dynamic Web page is not necessarily better than a static Web page
eg-online shopping website

----------------------------------
Client-side and Server-side Scripting
A script is a set of instructions. For Web pages they are instructions either to the Web browser (client-side scripting) or to the server (server-side scripting).
The client-side environment used to run scripts is usually a browser. The processing takes place on the end users computer.
The source code is transferred from the web server to the users computer over the internet and run directly in the browser.

The server-side environment that runs a scripting language is a web server. 
A user's request is fulfilled by running a script directly on the web server to generate dynamic HTML pages. 
This HTML is then sent to the client browser. It is usually used to provide interactive web sites that interface to databases or other data stores on the server.
