What is the role of the 'User-Agent' header in an HTTP request?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: When you use a web browser or an app to visit a website, it sends a request to the server.
Step 2: This request includes a special piece of information called the 'User-Agent' header.
Step 3: The 'User-Agent' header tells the server what type of software (like a specific web browser or app) is making the request.
Step 4: The server can use this information to understand how to respond, such as sending a version of the website that works best for that software.
