API
What is an API?
An API is a set of rules, protocols, and tools that allow different software applications to communicate and interact with each other. APIs define how different components of software systems can access and exchange data or functionality, enabling developers to integrate third-party services, access resources, or build new applications more efficiently. APIs play a crucial role in facilitating interoperability, automation, and innovation in modern software development and enabling the creation of interconnected ecosystems of applications and services.
