Can you explain what the attribute wrap_content means in interface development?

The wrap_content attribute in Android development is used in layout to indicate that the size of a component (for example, width or height) should be just enough to display its content. That is, the element will occupy only as much space as needed for its content, and no more.

Example:

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Sample text" />
