Application Programming Interface
A way for two programs to talk to eachother
Most commonly refers to web APIs, which provide a way for your application to talk to some website
So that instead of having to get the whole page from some news website, scrape it for data, and try to figure out which is the header and which is the body of the article, you can just call their API and get all that data, clean, in a structured way
oh i think i understood
thank you
so as i understand, my pc gets the informations from the websites with APIs.
