Framework
Why use a framework?
1.
When you build many projects
(or many parts of a large project),
eventually want to re-cycle the code or parts of it
Given enough frustration of
going through the same process over and over,
produce a set of reusable components.
WHY USE A FRAMEWORK?
2.
Exhibit "A" - Developer does web design:

FRAMEWORK
FOR FASTER AND EASIER
