cross-origin resource sharing (cors)
Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) is a security mechanism that allows web browsers to make requests for resources from a different origin, while ensuring the safety and protection of data transmitted between the browser and the server. It enables web applications hosted on one domain to access resources (such as APIs) on another domain, securely expanding the functionality and interactivity of websites.
