Reduce load with caching
Caching APIs involves choosing cacheable responses, setting keys and TTLs, handling invalidation or cache busting, and observing hit rates to balance freshness and performance.

Choose Cacheable
Cache GETs with clear freshness; avoid PII in caches.
Key and TTL
Define cache keys and reasonable TTLs; support busting.
Monitor
Track hit rates and stale errors; adjust TTLs/policies.

API Basics
APIs let software request data or actions from other systems through defined endpoints and responses.
Comparison
RAM vs Storage
RAM handles what your device is actively working on, while storage keeps apps, files, and system data available over time.
How it works
Global Positioning System
GPS uses timing signals from satellites to calculate a receiver's position on Earth.
What it is
