🌐 URL Module in Node.js

What is a URL?

• A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the address of a unique resource on the internet.
• It is used by browsers to retrieve resources such as HTML pages, CSS files, images, etc.
• Each valid URL points to a unique resource.

Hash Sign and Fragment

• A hash sign (#) in a URL is referred to as a fragment.
• URL fragments historically set the browser's scroll position to a predefined location on a page.
• If a URL refers to a document, the fragment refers to a specific subsection.

The Built-in URL Module in Node.js

• The URL module splits a web address into readable parts.
• It provides utilities for parsing and resolving URLs.
• Parsing converts an unstructured string into a structured object that's easier to work with.
