VFS API

The VFS (Virtual File System) API is a programming interface that provides a unified way for different types of storage systems—like traditional hard drives, network storage, or memory— to be accessed and managed by an operating system. It acts as a bridge, allowing software to read, write, and navigate files without needing to know the underlying hardware details. This abstraction simplifies file operations, making it easier for developers to create compatible, flexible applications that work seamlessly across varied storage environments.
