Chapter 5, Laying Out Pages, is out! This is the first chapter that really starts going into the deep browser internals, by introducing layout trees and the tree-based layout algorithm. Yes, there are trees beyond the DOM! (Not even just two, actually...) It’s a pretty complex chapter, with a lot of moving pieces, but the concepts it introduces are going to be at the center of a lot of what comes later: styles, events, and JavaScript.
