It is the same because as every other layer - text layer can contains transparent areas and can be applied layer style to it including different level of transparency from 0-100%, any of available blend modes, layer mask can be applied or clipping mask to clip content inside letter forms like for example image. Text layer can be moved, grouped, locked or converted to Smart Object as any other layer. Different from regular layer is because contains vector data so you can change size, color and even color of individual characters without any penalty, also font and font style can be changed (shape or design of letters). Other interesting things to do with text layer is to convert characters to shapes and to work with each individual character as separate shape (to change its shape, rotate it, enlarge, move, skew, distort and so on).

Text layer is editable so you can change Text, Font, Color, Size at any time. You can also convert type to shape when you have Type layer.

What is layers of Photoshop?

Every image contains at list one layer but you can have as many as you want. Layers are separate images which can contain transparent areas or different levels of transparency. People use layers to create compositions in Photoshop because every layer can be edited separately without affecting other layers or composition. Another advantage is because you can save layered image (PSD, PSB, TIFF ) and edit layers at any time you want. Photoshop offers several type of layers like Type layer so you can change typed text only for example. When it comes to save image you can flatten image or to save flattened version of image on disc and leave composition as it is with all layers for further editing at later time. In other words saved layered image serves as template which can be edited even after 10 or 20 years.
