Accessing server files and directories (what's this?)

0

Hello, once when creating a website I used the tag:

<a href="//site.com">Saia daqui!</a>

And she redirected to a page that (I think) showed the files and directories of the site. So, I had some doubts:

What I'm seeing is really what's on the server?

Why can I view and download some of these files? (should not this be hidden?)

I noticed that some files I could not read and other yes, how is it configured?

The link is there if you want to test:

file: //en.stackoverflow.com/ (if it redirects to the home page, put file: // en .stackoverflow.com / in the navigation bar)

And here's an image:

I will be very grateful if anyone explains this to me
