Application Frameworks

Application frameworks are structured software platforms that provide a foundation for developing and deploying applications. They offer a standardized way to build and manage software applications, providing pre-built components, libraries, and tools that streamline the development process. Frameworks typically dictate the architecture of an application, promoting best practices such as modularity, reusability, and maintainability. They often include built-in support for common tasks like database interaction, network communication, user interface rendering, and session management. Popular examples include Angular and React for web front-end development, Django and Ruby on Rails for web back-end development, and .NET for Windows applications. By abstracting many of the lower-level details, application frameworks enable developers to focus more on the unique aspects of their applications, significantly reducing development time and increasing efficiency.
