Browser cache is a feature provided on all browsers. What this does is, it keeps a copy of your site on the browsers ‘memory’ so that the next time you load the site, it loads faster.

However, this behavior has some side effects since it also means when you make changes to your site, they may not reflect immediately since you’ll be served a copy of your site that was saved on your browser – instead of the updated one saved on the servers your site is hosted

A workaround is usually to clear your browser cache.

This guide will help us learn how to do just that
