Server Push is when a server sends information to your device before you even ask for it.
Imagine you're at a pizza place and you order a cheese pizza. Usually, the chef makes the pizza after you tell them what you want, that's like regular internet traffic. But with Server Push, the chef notices you're a fan of cheese pizza and starts making one before you even say "I want a cheese pizza!" So when you finish telling your order, the pizza is already ready.
How It Works
In normal internet use, your device has to ask for information, like clicking a button or typing a search. With Server Push, the server (like that clever chef) sends data automatically, so things load faster and feel more instant.
Think of it like your favorite toy sending you a surprise message before you even check your phone. It's like having a friend who knows what you want before you ask, no magic, just smart timing!
