📖What it means
The number a running app listens on locally. Ports are private to the machine — everything a person reaches goes through a route.
⚖️What it is NOT
The neighbours this word is most often confused with, and the line between them.
Not: Route
The port is where the app listens; the route is how the world reaches it.
