What is the difference between a Library and a Framework

Let's talk about what is the difference between a library and framework. Although it is really a simple concept but sometimes beginners find it really tough.
On a simple thought,
More rules means, chances are it's a Framework.
Less rules means, chances are it's a Library.

A code library is like a real-life book library. You can pick the book when you want it as per your needs i.e. call the library functions when you want. A framework can be thought of as a photo frame where you have to consider the height and width of the frame for filling the photo i.e. you have to follow rules/standards/conventions of the framework to use it. Tip: When English is not your first language you may feel it is difficult to grasp the terms and you will try to find an analogy. Most of the time it is better to look for the meaning of technical terms in the English language first. Sometimes that alone helps you.

[@zamirshams3430]

perfectly brought out, however there are many non native English speakers as programmers

[@atchayaa3897]

Your comment was very useful to me I have read many sites but I got clarity in this comment

[@srinivasanh3931]

Great explanation, thanks!!

[@su1nta]

A Golden Tip

[@sumayya3326]

Beautiful explanation

[@kyukyahua]

So, it can be said that Library is used, for any programming languages, to enhance it's accessibilty and Framework is used to gain control over a certain action using a defined set of parameters and adhereing to the rules of the framework.

[@ianpaul0520]

library = a collection of functions to be used in your project. While framework = a collection of functions BUT it provides structure to your project.

[@dsa43fsdf]

thank you for this explanation, this video was way over-complicated lol, and in the end the video taught me nothing

[@yyndsai]

@@dsa43fsdf me too

[@atchayaa3897]

But it provides structure Can anyone put some light on it

[@fitnessbeastgk1491]

@@atchayaa3897 Since the Framework decides how the code should be called, it would define the structure of your project(Like where the js has to be kept, what should be the folder names etc) while if you are using library, you can structure your project any way you want and just use the library to get your stuff done.

[@mukulvashishth9974]

In summary, a library gives you individual tools you can use as you like, while a framework provides a structured environment where you follow predefined rules and use existing components to build your application.

[@Norfeldt]

ReactJS is a library (in the beginning it was called a framework by many). You can use it to make your html components but you are not locked in - so reactJS is like home 🤗

[@najimali32]

Thank you for explaining it with the simplest relatable example.

[@gauravnagar3712]

Yyeeaaahh thanks for this video sir. Love you

[@GobinathPalanisamy]

I'm a big fan of your teachings, can you please give detailed insights about creating our own libraries from scratch.

[@kishansinhparmar]

Thanks 4 giving your amazing examples.

[@Shubhamsharma-nk8nz]

Thnx sir I was actually confused regarding these subjects so now I am clear with what actually diffence between library and framework......

[@mysticatheinformationsansa3283]

As far as I'm aware, a library is a tool that enables us to create something, such as a house, and a framework is an architectural plan or map that ties us to a clear set of guidelines for creating that building.

[@sardanaberlian]

Great explanation, Thanks

[@weilaiyvn_DEACTIVATED]

So library is a glossary (like cell keyboard corrector) and a framework is a modified version of the program to extract the most out of certain specific actions? Therefore, this "modified version" prevents uses that go outside its central focus (focusing on one use has the disadvantage of limiting its performances).
