Features of web frameworks
Now let’s consider some common features that make web application frameworks rich and easy to use.
Web caching – helps to store different documents and avoids server overload. Users can use it on various systems, subject to a few conditions. It also works on the server side. For example, you may notice links to cached content on the Google search results page.
Scaffolding – web frameworks can automatically generate typical parts of an application or even the entire structure of a project, this is important for beginners. This approach allows you to significantly increase the speed of development and standardizes the code base.
A web template system is a set of different methodologies and software implemented for creating and deploying web pages. Template engines are used to process web templates. They are the framework tool responsible for web publishing.
Security – There are many means to identify and allow or deny access to various features of the web framework. Security tools also help to recognize the profiles that the application uses to avoid clickjacking, a deception mechanism in which an attacker gains access to a user’s sensitive information and even their devices.
URL Matching – If you want to make it easier for search engines to index while still using an attractive name for your site, then this framework feature is what you need. Also, URL matching can make it easier to access your site’s URLs.
Application frameworks allow you to develop different web applications. The most common tools are used to create blogs, forums, universal websites, content management systems (CMS)
How to learn to use web frameworks
You can learn how to use frameworks on your own. To find guidance on web frameworks, check out their documentation. The main advantage of official sources is relevance. These tutorials use the capabilities of the latest versions of the frameworks.
Actually, there are no separate web frameworks for beginners. The tools are equally suitable for developers of different levels. Of course, it is better to use frameworks that are easier to learn. However, sometimes written in the old school and rarely used, but suitable tools can lead you to success.
A good source of information is YouTube. Video hosting posts reviews and step-by-step guides. Watching such videos will help you choose the right framework if you are still in doubt. But you need to come there already with specific questions that arose when studying or using the framework.
