ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a web server in order for images to appear on a given website. They enable you to carry out a variety of tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things can easily be performed online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the internet site or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with many different web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't need to stick to only one language to build your site. They work with more than 100 formats, which includes the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Shared Website Hosting

All of the shared website hosting plans which we supply are generated on our state-of-the-art cloud platform and due to the fact that both GD Library and ImageMagick are present on it, your script applications can use these software suites any time. The libraries are accessible with all PHP versions that we provide since we support PHP 4 and a couple of versions of PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. No matter if you employ a custom-made script, one of the apps that you're able to install through the Hepsia Control Panel or a third-party app that you find on the Internet, you'll be able to build feature-rich multimedia websites, including image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and the users will be able to work with graphs as well as images in real time provided that the script features such functionality.

If you are a web developer, you're able to write the code yourself since we also support a lot of programming languages PHP and Python are among them. To give you even more options with regards to what applications you'll be able to run, we support a number of different PHP releases - 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2.
