I'm working with SlateJS and I'm wondering if it's rather a library than a framework, the author himself describes SlateJS as:

A completely customizable framework for building rich text editors

Okay so it's a library at the end ? ReactJS is also a completely customizable creator of web application in a some point of view _

Just to review theses concepts, any hint would be great, thanks

  • Thanks Amy for your comment but I asked this question in the specific scope of a "completely customizable framework" that made me wondering, by the end of the way it allows to underline that even a completely customizable framework like SlateJS is still a framework because of its summoning as a completely blueprinted utils, even being fully customizable IMHO – Webwoman Aug 30 '18 at 20:30
  • "completely customizable" framework is just marketing-speak. It isn't a context. –  Aug 30 '18 at 20:34
  • you have tested SlateJS to say that I suppose – Webwoman Aug 30 '18 at 20:35
  • No, but I don't need to to understand the difference between a framework and a library, and that "completely customizable" is not a technical term. –  Aug 30 '18 at 20:35
  • Some other people could need to make a difference to better understand among them I am, be tolerant with the people less smart than you ;), that said, thanks for the link, very usefull effetcively – Webwoman Aug 30 '18 at 20:40

A library is a bunch of functions / classes grouped together. A framework is a bunch of functions / classes grouped together that helps you structure your code. Every framework is a library.
