POSIX

March 7, 2020

It defines an interface (POS I X) to a computing environment (POSI X) that is meant to be portable (P OSIX) across operating systems (P OS IX). This interface extends across both user (commands) and program (libraries) space, and allows both source code as well as shell scripts to work in any compliant environment.

Simply, if the program uses POSIX capabilities then it should work on any POSIX-compliant OS.

Programmers often overlook when it comes to putting efforts in understanding Operating System concepts in detail and they can't be blamed for it, considering their situation, there are always pressing needs to learn new frameworks and technologies on the go. But it doesn't make this fact any less important that Understanding of Operating System is equally needed. As a program, may it be written in C, Java, Python or any other programming language, after writing the syntactical pieces of code, it needs to be executed on an Operating System. When it comes to incorporating various technologies in one project, it becomes a necessity to understand how they are interacting with the operating system.
