What (actually) are network effects?

I'm debating with my co-founder on network effects after we've both agreed we'd studied them on different sources each. She read Andrew Chen's The Cold Start Problem, while I did more research on nfx -> https://www.nfx.com/masterclass/network-effects There's some conflicting views here and I was interested in your understandings of it. Thanks
