ImageMagick and GD Library
What is ImageMagick used for? What exactly is the GD Library? What is the reason for their worldwide recognition?
ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a hosting server for images to show up on a given site. They enable you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things can be done 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 depending on the device and resolution the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be employed with many web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't need to stick to just one language to build your website. They work with more than one hundred formats, which includes the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
