How does WordPress Multisite work?

The question is about WordPress .

Answer:
WordPress Multisite lets you run multiple websites from a single WordPress installation. All sites share the core WordPress files, but each site can have its own themes, plugins, and settings. The network administrator controls everything from a central dashboard. This setup is ideal for managing a network of sites - such as blogs, stores, or sites in different languages - because updates and maintenance are handled centrally. By default, multisite supports both subdomains (like site1.example.com) and subdirectories (like example.com/site1) for building and scaling multiple sites.
