ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

X.1035

X.1035 is a very long and complicated set of rules that tell technology devices how to communicate with each other. Think of it like a special language that computers and phones use to talk to each other.

Just like how we need to use words and grammar to communicate with each other, devices need a set of rules too. X.1035 helps devices understand each other by telling them what information to send, how to send it, and how to check if it's the right information.

So the next time you're able to connect your phone to your Wi-Fi network, that's thanks to X.1035!
