ImageMagick and GD Library
Uncover what ImageMagick is as well as what the GD Library can be used for and why they are so well liked.
ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a web server to enable images to appear on a given website. They allow you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etc. These things can be performed online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the internet site or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution which the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be used with various web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't have to stick to only one language to build your internet site. They work with over 100 formats, including the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
