Ever had a friend join your trip after you’ve booked seats? 🎟️ You’d call support 📞 or tweak the booking. Without a system, it’d be chaos—miscommunication galore! In tech, APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) save us 🦸. They’re the internet’s 'customer care,' linking software securely. Like Batman, they work unseen.Your Google feed has news 📰. Google doesn’t write it—APIs fetch articles, match your tastes, and deliver them smoothly. How do APIs work? With web APIs: The Request ➡️ – Your app sends a server: • A method (GET to retrieve, POST to send) • An endpoint URL • HTTP protocol. The Response ⬅️ – The server replies with: • A status code (✅ 200, ❌ 404) • JSON/XML data. That’s an API call! APIs are key for developers, product managers, or tech fans—they power our daily digital tools. Next time an app feels magical, thanks APIs!
