A data URL is a URL that starts with the prefix `data:` instead of `http:` or `https:`. This data prefix (or scheme) allows you to embed the actual content of the resource in the URL itself, rather than linking to it. For example `data:text/html,<h1>Hello world</h1>` is a data URL that contains HTML content directly. Try it out in a browser tab!
