Deploy

Infrastructure

Making new code live.

Build, upload, switch traffic, verify. During the switch two versions run simultaneously, which is why changes must be able to coexist with their predecessor for a few seconds.

DOM

Frontend

The browser’s live model of the page.

The structure the browser builds from your HTML and then keeps in memory. JavaScript changes the page by changing the DOM. What you see in the elements inspector is the DOM, not your original HTML.
