Hey! Great question—what is an endpoint? Think of it like a mailbox. The URL (like `/users`) is the address, and the endpoint is the actual spot where your app drops off or picks up data.
It’s called an "endpoint" because it’s literally the end of the line for your request—the API does its thing there and sends back a response.
For a real-world example, imagine Twitter’s API: `/tweets` is an endpoint to fetch tweets, and `/post-tweet` is where you send new tweets.
