Many people don’t even know what an API is 😒💨

Sometimes we over generalize the meaning of api. Even methods that does some form of functionality is an api. Why do we often leave those one out ?

some people need real life explanations.

This definition been used countless time, simple and eas to understand

Would have been nice to at least mention my IG or tiktok and not just use my video.

True, tech lingo can be a mystery. It's wild how much we take for granted!

If you have to rate limit your api hasn’t been perf tested and isn’t lean enough.

So what is an api

Watch the video

This is just very clear and simple 👌

Summed up nicely 👏

@grok help him out

An API (Application Programming Interface) is like a waiter in a restaurant: it lets apps communicate and exchange data without revealing internal workings. For example, a weather app uses an API to fetch forecasts from a server. You send a request (e.g., via URL), and it responds with data like JSON. Keys handle access, and rate limits prevent overload. Great vid—hope that clears it up!

@afolabimicheals Help him with the content creator handle or username

Nice work man. Things I love seeing on my TL.

Sure

This is actually very informative and well-done

Even more don't even care.

For grading petroleum using density 🙂

@Sassy___Miss

Real… most don’t know

In reality the end-user doesn’t care about what actually goes on in the backend. Just like how most users ignore the details in T&Cs of an application

U guys talk about to rest and this is not the only type api who exist. The definition is correct and simple (for beginners) but the response can be something else than json.

Lol...the funny thing is two weeks back when i asked @deepseek_ai what is the difference between MCP and API was... it gave the same "waiter analogy" for API

This is for explaining concepts at a bar for non technical people, as someone that is part of interview panel, please show technical depth and don’t ever do this in an interview with a technical person.

"Many people don’t even know what an API is 😒💨" Many people don't need to know. If you're going to tell us, tell us without making it sound like we're illiterate.
