Anyone who is familiar with programming code will quickly come across the term “framework”. What this is can already be guessed with a translation: the English word “framework” stands for “framework” or “framework”. In this article you will learn how this framework works for code and what advantages a framework has for programming.
What is a framework?
A programme code consists of many small building blocks. To make programming easier and save time, there are so-called frameworks. They are not independent programmes, but provide a programming framework for the developer.
- You can understand a framework as a pre-programming. Various functions and elements are already included and do not have to be reprogrammed each time. The developer can access these elements within the framework.There are different types of frameworks. You will certainly have come across the term “.NET Framework” if you are interested in programming code. This is, for example, the framework for Microsoft applications. Tip: In another article you can read what you need the .NET Framework for.
- Frameworks are not only available for programmes. For example, web frameworks are provided for creating dynamic websites. And programmers test their software with so-called test frameworks, for example.
Advantages of frameworks
From the explanation of frameworks, the advantages of frameworks for programming code are already clear.
- Recurring tasks are already “pre-programmed” in the framework and can be reused as often as desired.
- A framework also offers standardised interfaces to certain sources, such as databases. This makes it easier to address a source.
- Frameworks make programming easier and save the developer a lot of time.
