Browser Object Model
Browser Object Model (BOM) is a programming interface JavaScript tool for working with web browsers. This enables access & manipulation of the browser window, frames, and other browser-related objects by facilitating the JavaScript code.
The main object is “window,” which helps to interact with the browser. By default, you can call window functions directly.
window.alert(" Hey Geeks");
// Same as
alert(" Hey Geeks ");
Note: It is not recommended always to explicitly mention “window” because it’s the default. So, the alert(” Hey Geeks “); is equivalent to the longer version.
