API meaning
“API” stands for “Application Programming Interface.” It is a set of rules and protocols for building and interacting with software applications.
An API defines the methods and data formats that applications can use to request and exchange information.
APIs are used to enable the integration between different software systems. For instance, when you use a mobile app to check the weather, that app might use an API to request weather data from a remote server.
When you receive the data on your app, it’s the result of the server responding to the API call made by the app.
