Questions tagged [api]
An application programming interface (API) specifies how some software components should interact with each other. In addition to accessing databases or computer hardware, such as hard disk drives or video cards, an API can be used to ease the work of programming graphical user interface components. In practice, most often an API is a library that includes specifications for routines, data structures, object classes, and variables.
