Everything about Client (computing)
Piece of software accessing a server service
In computing, a client is a piece of computer hardware or software that accesses a service made available by a server as part of the client–server model of computer networks. The server is often on another computer system, in which case the client accesses the service by way of a network. Wikipedia →
