A library is full of code that you can reuse so you do not have to reinvent the wheel, itā€™s very useful and makes coding easier.

  1. Why do we need libraries?

They give us access to useful functions that other programmers have written. That can save time and frustration.

Why do we need libraries?

We need libraries in order to work faster and save time by using someones elseā€™s code instead of writing the same code by yourself from scratch.

  1. We need libraries because sometimes someone has already created a function or a script that is useful and we donĀ“t have to spend time rewriting the code.

By using a library, programmers can re-use existing code when possible and save time by not writing code that another programmer has already written.

To reduce Time need to reprogramm a code that is already done before. This allows us to build more complex programs with less time. We donĀ“t have to create all from scratch.
In other words: It is easier when you can stand on the shoulders of giants!
We can build forward and helping us to go further!

Why do we need libraries?

so that we dont have to rewrite existing code and use the code that does a function that we want to use.

  1. Why do we need libraries?

We need libraries so that we can recycle the code. The problem is that if we do not use libraries we end up doing extra work and potentially writing more code than we need to, if the code in fact is out there and exists. This allows us to be really efficient. It is better to read the documentation than the code in terms of saving time. Reading code has value but it is much more efficient to read the documentation than the code because this would take less time. Reading the code does however, have value if you are looking for something really specific.

Libraries are collections of ready made functions or code. It makes it easier to build things by saving time and not having to write code. You can import libraries and use them in your own code.

  1. We need libraries because it allows us reuse code developed elsewhere by another programmer. Instead of creating your own code with a function used in several hundred other websites, why not just take existing code and modify for your own website?

We need libraries to have a common base (between projects, app, people) to build on it.
Libraries look like a package that we download/install and we connect it to our project : all of the code in them can now be used for our own code. Itā€™s like a plugin for Chrome : it adds many usefull features without having the need to recode everything.

We need libraries so we donā€™t waste our time re-inventing the wheel. Most websites are interactive in the same ways and it would make sense to be able to re-use existing code when we can, as programmers.

  1. Why do we need libraries?

Writing code takes up a lot of time. Therefore it is just simpler to use code that was already written and tested so you can save some time on your project. Libraries is basically a reusable bundle of JavaScript functionality. You can use it on your website and you donā€™t have to write all the code from scratch.

  1. Libraries allow programmers to re-use existing code for creating functions to save time. A library is a public JavaScript file that contains functions created by another programmer. These functions are accessible by anyone and, to be used in a script, the library file needs to be imported.

    Libraries exist to reduce redundant work. By making common needs/tasks easier to use through a library, less time is spent remaking something that already exists and more time can be committed to new code.
