Layout viewport - MDN Web Docs Glossary: Definitions of Web-related terms 编辑

The layout viewport is the viewport into which the browser draws a web page. Essentially, it represents what is available to be seen, while the visual viewport represents what is currently visible on the user's display device.

This becomes important, for example, on mobile devices, where a pinching gesture can usually be used to zoom in and out on a site's contents. The rendered document doesn't change in any way, so the layout viewport remains the same as the user adjusts the zoom level. Instead, the visual viewport is updated to indicate the area of the page that they can see.
