ImageMagick and GD Library
What's ImageMagick employed for? What exactly is the GD Library? What is the reason for their global popularity?
ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a web server for images to show up on a given internet site. They allow you to execute various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things can be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the website or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution which the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with lots of web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not have to stick to one particular language to create your website. They work with more than one hundred formats, which includes the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
