What is a Framework?

What is Framework?

Since they are often built, tested, and optimized by several experienced software engineers and programmers, software frameworks are versatile, robust, and efficient.  Using a software framework to develop applications lets you focus on the high-level functionality of the application. This is because any low-level functionality is taken care of by the framework itself.

Why do we use Frameworks?

 Developing software is a complex process. It necessitates a plethora of tasks, including coding, designing, and testing. For only the coding part, programmers had to take care of the syntax, declarations, garbage collection, statements, exceptions, and more.

Software frameworks make life easier for developers by allowing them to take control of the entire software development process, or most of it, from a single platform.  Advantages of using a software framework:  Assists in establishing better programming practices and fitting use of design patterns

Code is more secure Duplicate and redundant code can be avoided Helps consistent developing code with fewer bugs Makes it easier to work on sophisticated technologies One could create their software framework or contribute to open-source frameworks. Hence, there is a continuous improvement in the functionality Several code segments and functionalities are pre-built and pre-tested. This makes applications more reliable Testing and debugging the code is a lot easier and can be done even by developers who do not own the code The time required to develop an application is reduced significantly
