Why using a Framework is a great idea?
Hello folks! How have you been? I had a great time this Independence Day (you peeps saw the pic, didn’t you?) Today, the limelight is on framework. It’s taking the developers’ world by storm. The framework has been on the market for a while, and yet, not much is talked about it.
By definition, a framework is a platform which developers use for building web applications and software. This environment consists of a set of resources and tools so that it becomes easier for developers to write code, build and manage web applications, websites and web services. And in many cases, an operating system natively supports a framework.
What does framework include?
A framework, in general, includes templating capabilities, classes, and functions. It can even include compilers, code libraries (ooh la la), and other programs that are used in the development process. These extra features come in handy to process input, help you manage a hardware device, and you can even interact with system software.
From a developer’s PoV, it is a lot like an API (Application Programming Interface), though technically framework itself has APIs. Just like the name suggests, the framework serves as the foundation for programming, whereas an API provides you access to the elements that a framework supports.
Which languages support framework?
Today all the languages have their own framework. Some of the most popular ones are:
- Ruby on Rails
- Angular.JS
- Spring
- Django
- Symfony
- Laravel
And still few are there.
Depending on your choice of language and the work you are doing, you can choose your framework.
To wrap it up
Let’s look at the advantages of using a framework. You can easily write your code using its extra features without having to do extra work.
For example, you write a program for the Android Application Framework. This will run on any Android device without any other additional files to be installed. So, your time is saved.
Now, you know what a framework is and how it works. Go on, try this environment by yourself and share your experience here in the comment section. You can drop a message too!
