From my knowledge, when you use a framework you are bound to follow some rules, naming conventions, convention over configuration concept. So laravel, django, angular is a framework. They make you bound to follow some rule. Therefore libraries do not make you bound to use their code or structure. Like You include Bootstrap in your project but if you do not use a single line of a bootstrap code in your project its ok. you include jquery but you use sometimes jquery some time raw javascript. it's totally ok. But in the case of a framework, you may follow their rule. So bootstrap, jquery, vue are not framework
