What is a view in the context of web development?

In web development, a View is a part of the application responsible for displaying data to the user. In the MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture, the View handles visualization and user interaction.

For example, in Python frameworks (Django, Flask), a View can be a function or a class that retrieves data from the model, processes it, and passes it to a template for rendering HTML.

Thus, the View is the presentation layer that transforms data into a user-friendly interface.
