What is an API?
An API or Application Programming Interface is mainly a set of programming instructions or standards for accessing a web based app. An API acts basically as a software to software interface enabling apps to interact without any user knowledge or intervention. APIs are instrumental in helping the main application spread into others and increasing user reach.
In the world of app development today, almost all powerful apps are powered by numerous highly specialized APIs, each API developed to serve a specific function for delivering stunning results. Further development of an API- enabled application can be carried out using the API itself.
