What is a “smart contract”? (1 Viewer)

I’ve been reading about “smart contracts” and I’m just laughing because it sounds funny . But they said it’s just a code that runs itself. I tried to imagine it but my brain can't picture it well. It feels like those fancy naming just to make normal things look advanced. What exactly is smart contract?

A smart contract is basically a program on a blockchain that runs automatically when certain conditions are met. I’d like to learn how to build one because it feels like a practical way to create apps that don’t need middlemen or manual approval.
