bookWhat is the Internet?

The Internet is often misunderstood by some people as a cloud floating in the sky, making it difficult to comprehend. However, this belief is untrue.

Internet

The Internet is a global network that connects millions of computers and devices through a vast system of wires. It enables seamless communication and information sharing between devices, allowing a computer in New York to exchange data with another computer in London easily.

Client - Web Server

The Client represents the user's device, such as a phone, computer, laptop, tablet, TV, or any other device used to access a website.

On the other hand, the Web Server provides data to users, serving as a readily available library that supplies the necessary files and information for effective interaction with websites.
