Application software

Topic

Application software is a class of computer programs designed to perform specific tasks directly for end-users rather than managing the computer system itself. Common examples include word processors, web browsers, media players, and mobile applications. It is typically distinguished from system software, which operates and maintains the computer's hardware and infrastructure.
