Blink Codebase: Deeper Classes and Components

The provided texts describe various classes and components within the Blink rendering engine, detailing their definitions and functionalities. These documents cover how Blink manages CSS styling (ComputedStyleBase, StyleResolverState, StyleAdjuster), handles specific web content types like SVG and MathML (SVGElement, MathMLElement), and implements modern web platform features such as Web Components (CustomElementRegistry), WebXR (XRSession), Web Audio (AudioContext), and various hardware APIs (BluetoothDevice, HIDDevice). Furthermore, they shed light on Blink's internal diagnostics and performance tools (MemoryUsageMonitor, TraceEventHelper, Internals) and its approaches to off-main-thread processing for graphics (PaintWorklet, OffscreenCanvas, CanvasRenderingContext2D), illustrating the intricate architecture that powers web browsing.
