Abstraction layer

An abstraction layer is a way to simplify complex systems by hiding the details of how they work. Think of it like the dashboard of a car; you see the speedometer and fuel gauge, but you don't need to understand the engine mechanics to drive. In technology, abstraction allows users to interact with software or hardware without needing to know the intricate workings behind it. This makes it easier to use and develop systems, as different layers can communicate without exposing every detail, enhancing usability and enabling more efficient problem-solving.
