Difference in what context?

Question

Difference between forwardslash (/) and backslash (\) in FILE & URL path.

Answer 1

the difference is that Unix based OS use (/) for their system path like MacOs , Linux Distros , OpenBSD ,....
While windows and MS-DOS OS use (\) for their system path

so if you use \ in MacOs for path you'll get an error and visa-versa
