Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)

A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is a string of characters used to identify a resource on the internet, such as a webpage, image, or file. It functions as a unique address that tells your browser where to find the specific resource you want to access. Think of it as the digital equivalent of a street address for a house. URIs can be complete web addresses (URLs) or more general identifiers. They provide a standardized way to locate, access, and reference resources across the internet efficiently and accurately.
