Change 'effecting' to 'affecting' inside of Post-rendering section
Changes 'affecting' to 'causing', I think this might cause a little less confusion on this last sentence.
I removed the letter "s" from the phrase "uses a custom parsers" so that it now reads "uses a custom parser"
I think the phrase "Javascript engine" is more accurate than "Javascript interpreter" because certain Javascript engines, like the V8 engine used in Google Chrome, convert Javascript directly into machine code and do not utilize an interpreter at all.

In the context of the web, upload = send. Think of it like loading the data "upward" to the internet.
When you upload something to a website, or another user's computer, or a network location, etc., you're sending data from your device to the other device. Files can be uploaded to a server, such as a website, or directly to another device, like when using a file transfer utility.
For example, if you upload an image to Facebook, you're sending the picture from your device to the Facebook website. The file started with you and ended up somewhere else, so it's considered an upload from your perspective.
This is true for any transfer like this, no matter the file type or where it's going. You can upload documents to your teacher via email, upload a video to YouTube, upload music to your online music collection, upload photos to a backup service, etc.
