ImageMagick and GD Library
What's ImageMagick employed for? What exactly is the GD Library? What lies behind their worldwide popularity?
ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a web server to enable images to show up on a given internet site. They allow you to execute various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so forth. 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 website or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be employed with a lot of web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to only one language to build your internet site. They work with more than a hundred formats, including the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.

The libraries are accessible with all of the PHP versions that we offer because we support PHP 4 and multiple versions of PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. Regardless if you work with a tailor-made script, one of the applications which you'll be able to install from the Hepsia Control Panel or a third-party application that you find on the Internet, you're able to build feature-rich multi-media websites, for instance image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and your users will be able to work with graphs and images in real time as long as the script features such functionality.
