URL

In plain terms

A web address specifying where to find a resource.

Going deeper

A Uniform Resource Locator gives the location and access method of a resource, the addresses you type into browsers. It points to where something lives.

Under the hood

Comprises scheme, host, path, query, and fragment; a type of URI that includes location.

Examples

https://example.com/page, web links, API endpoints, browser addresses.

Think of it like...

Like a full street address telling you exactly where to find a place.
