ImageMagick and GD Library
Discover more about ImageMagick and GD Library to discover why they are now present on almost every single web server.
ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a server to enable images to appear on a given internet site. They enable you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things could be carried out 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 visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with a lot of web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to a single language to develop your site. They work with more than one hundred formats, including the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.
