it works by sending post and get requests to websites, its better than datastore because it has a higher cap per minute than datastores and you can manipulate the data or view it or whatever outside of roblox (ex: if you stored it as a spreadsheet)

It can be slower though depending on how good the server it's hosted on is.

you can do lots of stuff, if you want to do complex stuff you will need your own web server but I have managed to store leaderstats with google sheets and done a cross server chat with trello
