You are an absolute MVP 👍

I've always enjoyed the restaurant anology as well. The cooks in the kitchen are the back end, dining area for guests is the front end, and the servers are the APIs.

I think servers is the wrong word to use here maybe waiters/waitresses

Guys I’ll make it simple. An API is what connects apps together. So your front end UI to backend.

Okay not just me😂

I'm amazed at how easily you've cleared this up for me. I got 2 minutes into the video and subscribed because I've been trying to find a clear fast paced source of information on stuff like this to expand my knowledge. Thank you so much!

Hey Aaron, nice video. I liked how you said the Uber app is actually a bunch of little apps all connected together via APIs, and that there's teams of developers working on each app. I'm pretty sure that mostly all people on this planet don't realize the sheer amount of time and mental effort that goes into creating software. My mind boggles when I think about things like operating systems and artificial intelligence and robotics and the amount of thought and trial and error that's gone through to date to have what we have so far. I really take my hat off to and appreciate the great minds that having built everything we have and take for granted. It's a dream of mine to contribute even something ½ a percent as great as all the big tech stuff we enjoy.

Hey Jack! I needed a quick API primitive crash course for work and this video did the trick; concise, clear, and visually engaging. Great content!

Im on a mission to become a self taught backend coder. Think im in da right place bro. 👍🏼💯

Just for fun for my coworkers I made a small game in Unity and I had this idea to use the Domino's pizza API so you could complete an action in the game that would order you a pizza.

I like how you show how many people and parts are required to create one app. I feel like in the beginning of my career, I always thought it was just one person behind a screen, but really, it is thousands of people, and using lots of resources that have already been created!

this is the first time , I understand what is an API. . love bro

incredibly easy to understand and your examples were nice to follow, great content! thank you for posting

You have provided a flawless and comprehensive definition, capturing the essence of everything perfectly.

Not too long, crisp. Awesome work Aaron!

1 minute in, and I have already learned a lot. Thanks, Aaron.

Just discovered your channel through this video. Amazingly explained what API is all about. Thanks a lot! I've never really understood the API concept completely untill I got to watch this video. Subbed you! Appreciate the amazing effort. 👍 🙏 🤩

Great video, the learning experience was enjoyable. I enjoy learning about tech. Yet too often the videos become boring after a while and sometimes hard to understand. Your explanation was easy to understand and entertaining without feeling like it’s a commercial advert. Thank you, I’m subscribing for sure.

Might be the most clear explanation of APIs I have seen, and trust me I have seen a bunch of videos trying to make sure I understand APIs

brilliant analogy...when companies or bosses say "present something on a piece of paper" this is what they want...very creatively done impressive

this is your second video i am watching today....super useful and concise information...Thanks Aaron

We really miss this 5 mins videos and your drawings, brings back memories :) thank you Aaron!

This cleared things up really well thanks dude.

That was the best explanation I’ve seen so far. Thanks.

Perfect. Thank you for this

I respect any developer that can summarise a concept in 5mins. They are usually the best, and they are great for Job Interviews 🙄

Oh my God.... FINAAAALLLYYYY!!!!!!! Dude, you deserve an award for being likely the only person who has explained APIs so well. I have watched so many videos and read too many articles and still left wondering what the hell it is and what it actually does. Thank you!!!!!

That would’ve been the smoothest sponsor plug I’ve ever seen. Great video, helped me understand API’s better than any other video I’ve seen

Simple, elegant and informative. Love it, thanks mate 👌🏻

I knew what an API was and even wrote a few myself. But I still learned something and got a different perspective. Thanks!

Thank you for always inspiring us to learn and to never give up!

Thank you so much!!! Best video on KZread that quickly describes what an API is

Thank you Aaron for this fast track into API

god. THANK you. needed this explained to me simply, so many vids are overly technical about this

Fantastic video that clearly defines API in a way everyone can understand! My favorite API is the Twilio API.

Great content. You really break it down well. Thanks!

Excellent explanation. I work in building automation and we use a space scheduling program on our campus. We're exploring an API to connect that scheduling software to our BAS supervisor. It will have to be pretty involved as it will require the API to know exactly which equipment to turn on for which spaces are scheduled for occupancy. We're talking 54 buildings on our BAS system and many of those buildings have 20-100 schedulable rooms or auditoriums. We have a contractor we're in discussions with now that has already implemented this on some other campuses. This quick video helps me understand this process better. Thank you.

Thank You! I had to listen to this a few times to get it, but now I do!

You great man! Summarized in a few minutes. Subscribed to get more useful information!

Just found this video as I'm looking at an entry level support role that wants knowledge on APIs. Thanks for sharing. Helps give a nice "nuts and bolts" idea on the!

Thanks man. Opened my understanding!

This video was great! Thank you so much!

I watched this not knowing a single thing about APIs. Still didn't quite get it. Came back after countless videos, and it's starting to click. Thanks man

Thank you, for sharing. I get a better general idea than before.

I dont know shit about programming. And i understood this. Great job Aaron. Btw. I liked the style of this video. A really good and nice effect to highlight the text in flashing red light. It was very pronunced without getting clutterly.

Absolutely love this explanation. I have an AAS in Database Development/Computer Systems, quite a bit of fundamental coding courses up to Java III, and with the different definitions and explanations being thrown around, it was actually confusing me, even though I've done quite a bit with APIs. @_@ Thanks man. Fantastic corollary, especially with the username + password analogy.

dude this has been the most relaxing coding based video i've seen.

Watched two videos before this one and both were about 10 minutes, this dude made more sense in five minutes

Wow, the timing on this one. I'm building my first personal project for my portfolio and the backend is an API I'm connecting to a front-end with vanilla JavaScript.

Very well done Aaron. Thanks..

I am sold for your program that was an amazing api explanation!! Thanx

Phenomenal video, thanks for breaking it down

I really enjoyed the video, Aaron! You made it easy for people to understand. Well-done! I use Zapier for my business and it's a great automation tool!

Thanks for summarizing what an API is.

THank u Aaron, very helpful

Sorry for doubting that this is the only video I need...this is a very good video explaining what an api is

Thanks for providing the detailed information 🙂

Thank you for this! Needed it dumped almost all the way down for my purposes. Excellent content

really helpful, thanks!

This cleared up a lot thank you🙏

Love your videos man😍

Thank you this was extremely helpful.

Really dope video.🔥

This video has helped me understand that API's can also be used internally on the same app connecting different components. Most videos focus on API's connecting other Apps.

Cheers mate that was fresh!

This is such a great explanation of APIs.

Simply beautiful. Thanks Aaron. Love it. This is the best of the best video for API concept. Thanks again.
