. Lets assume the amount of data I insert is bigger than the shared_buffers. I didnt commit the transaction yet, the data will be saved on temp files until I commit ?
What happens if I have in my transaction,I did a lot of changes and I filled the wal_buffers / shared buffers but I still didnt commit. How the database will handle it ?

It is clear that when we query some data, if that data isnt in the shared buffers pg will go bring the relevant blocks from the disk to the shared buffers. I wanted to ask if the same logic works with dml(insert/update/delete). I'm familiar with the writing logic, that the checkpointer is the process that writing the data changes into the data files during every checkpoint and that the commit write the changes from the wal buffers to to the wal files. I wanted to ask about a situation where we run dmls and that data isnt available in the shared buffers.
