The website dictionary.com brings the following definition to cache:

a temporary storage space or memory that allows fast access to data.

Your internet browser stores websites' data in order to increase its performance when loading information. However, sometimes this can cause problems when working with web applications. This article from techtarget.com explains what issues are caused by browser cache:

• A full cache memory can cause applications to crash or not load properly. 
• Old caches can contain outdated information and files, causing webpages to not load or load incorrectly. Clearing them can get rid of outdated information.

Therefore, some web application-related issues can be solved by clearing your browser cache. For most computer-based internet browsers, you can open menus used to clear cache, cookies, and history, by pressing Ctrl-Shift-Delete (Windows OS) or Command-Shift-Delete (Mac OS).
