Framework vs Library

Framework

A software framework is an abstraction in which software, providing generic functionality, can be selectively changed by additional user-written code, thus providing application-specific software.

Library

A library is a collection of non-volatile resources used by computer programs, often for software development.

Key difference

Inversion of control (IoC) is a design pattern in which custom-written portions of a computer program receive the flow of control from a generic framework.

• When you use a library, you are in charge of the flow of the application. You are choosing when and where to call the library.
• When you use a framework, the framework is in charge of the flow. It provides some places for you to plug in your code, but it calls the code you plugged in as needed.
