I liken this instead to GOTO vs COMEFROM. A library is a GOTO statement, while a framework is a COMEFROM statement. Deity help you with the latter if you have problems and not enough knowledge about the framework.


I always saw it as a tight-coupling with whatever framework you are working with but a loose-coupling with whatever library you are working with, but I like this more. It's much more emotional, almost psychological horror to a programmer.


It is...and then you can't help thinking about the "no-code" solutions.

Anyway, also:

1. any application with sufficiently complex use cases requires configuration

2. any configuration can be made programmable

3. frameworks are application configuration with an open-end configuration programmability

4. ...

5. profit
