Getting Start With Application Frameworks

What is an Application Framework?





An application framework is a software library that provides a fundamental structure to support the development of applications for a specific environment. .It acts as the skeletal support to build an application.

Application frameworks can be used in both graphical user interface development, and in other areas like web-based applications. By using application frameworks we can find solutions to the general issues faced during the development of applications.

If you think the concept of Application frameworks is an emerged idea the answer is 'No'. It started around 1970 - 1990 with the SmallTalk user interface framework, MacApp (for Macintosh), and Struts (for Web-based Java applications).

The Pros and Cons of using Application Frameworks
  •     If you want to develop your code faster and easier Application Framework is the best bridge that can help you. You can use the pre-built functions in Application Frameworks to Increase the Efficiency of development.                                                                                               
  •     Extensively utilized frameworks have big Security implementations. So if you find any vulnerability or a security hole, you can go to the framework's website and inform the team about it. When the team gets notifications from the community who act as testers they can fix those security issues.                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
  •     The development Cost is very low because even the most popular frameworks are free.                                                                                                                                                 
  •     The documents, community forums that come with Application Frameworks can help whenever you need the Support.





  • Even if you use a framework you won't be able to learn much about the language behind it.                                                   
  • As an example, the way of coding jQuery and javascript are different from each other.                                                         
  • You have to choose a framework according to your requirements. It means the framework is Limited to what it is. We can't change it according to our requirements.                                                                                                           
  • Since the code is Public it can be used by people with bad intentions.

Examples for Application Frameworks


Framework act as a major role in the fields of Web application and web development. Since there are many frameworks available in the market it's essential to choose the best framework wisely by considering their advantages and disadvantages. Some popular frameworks that available in the market are Laravel, AngularJS, Spring Framework,Node.js, React, Django, Rails, and Vue.js.Let's discuss a few from them.

     
      

Laravel


          ..Laravel is a free, open-source PHP web framework created with the intention, of developing the web applications following. the Model-View-Controller architecture. A modular packaging system with a dedicated dependency manager, utilities that aid in application development and different ways for accessing the database are some special features of Laravel.

AngularJS


            . AngularJS is a structural framework for dynamic web apps..It lets.you use HTML as your template language and lets you extend HTML's syntax to express your application's components clearly and succinctly. AngularJS's data binding and dependency injection eliminate much of the code you would otherwise have to write.

Spring Framework


               .Spring Framework is a java framework and it is the most popular application development program for java enterprise. Spring.Framework act as an inversion of control for the java platform. The framework's core. features can be used by any Java application, but there are extensions for building web applications on top of the Java EE platform.


Application Frameworks are able to speed up and make a significant efficiency in your work. But it is not a must to use in developing. Efficiently using your skills and Choosing the required framework wisely will help you to make a great development.
