When **CORS** (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) is mentioned, it's usually in the context of **Same-Origin Policy**, a security feature implemented by web browsers. It **blocks web pages from making cross-origin requests** with the purpose of preventing malicious websites from making unauthorized requests to sensitive resources on other domains.

MD013 - Line length

Tags: line_length

Aliases: line-length Parameters: linelength, codeblocks, tables (number; default 80, boolean; default true)

This rule is triggered when there are lines that are longer than the configured line length (default: 80 characters). To fix this, split the line up into multiple lines.

This rule has an exception where there is no whitespace beyond the configured line length. This allows you to still include items such as long URLs without being forced to break them in the middle.

You also have the option to exclude this rule for code blocks and tables. To do this, set the code_blocks and/or tables parameters to false.

Code blocks are included in this rule by default since it is often a requirement for document readability, and tentatively compatible with code rules. Still, some languages do not lend themselves to short lines.

When it comes to HTTP, an **origin** is defined by several different aspects of a URL. As mentioned in a [previous article](/js/s/window-location-cheatsheet/), the origin is composed of the following:

As this can be quite restrictive, CORS allows the server to specify which other domains are allowed to make requests to its resources. This is done through the use of **CORS headers**, `Origin` in the request and `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` in the response. This way, for example, API servers can allow requests from specific web pages, while still blocking requests from other domains.

As long as **all three** of these match, the browser considers the two URLs to be **same-origin**. If any of these aspects differ, the browser considers the two URLs to be **cross-origin**. It might be helpful to look at some examples of different origins to clarify:

It's also important to note that the **path** (everything that comes after the hostname) is **not part of the origin**. This means that `https://30secondsofcode.org` and `https://30secondsofcode.org/articles` are considered to be the same origin.
