A brief overview of conio.h is below:

The conio.h header file is a system header file, specific to Turbo C, which predates C by many years and is specific to the DOS command line.

conio.h supports a range of functions that you may use in a C program. However, the header file itself and the functions were largely replaced by the <stdio.h> header file.

conio.h is a C header file used mostly by MS-DOS compilers to provide console input/output. It is not part of the C standard library or ISO C, nor is it defined by POSIX. This header declares several useful library functions for performing "console input and output" from a program.
