ImageMagick and GD Library
Find what ImageMagick is and just what the GD Library can be used for and why they're so popular.
ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a hosting server for images to show up on a given website. They permit you to carry out different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etc. These things can certainly be done 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 site or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with lots of web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not have to stick to just one language to create your internet site. They work with more than 100 formats, including the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
