What are "Third-Party Packages"?

We can write all the CSS / JS code on our own!

But often, we have certain features, styles or tasks that are very common to a lot of projects

• Default Styling
• Image Carousel
• Parallax Effect

"Third-Party Packages" provide "ready to use" code which you can add into your projects and sites

 

Popular JavaScript Packages & Use-Cases

Unlike with CSS Packages, it's less about choosing "one package for everything"

 

Third-Party vs Custom Code

Third Party

• Less code to write, see results quickly
• But: Less control, more "default behavior"

Custom Code

• More code to write, more work to do, possibly more error-prone
• But: Full control over the result

There is no single right or wrong way!

Typically, in bigger projects, we will use some third-party code for some parts of our project and custom code for some other parts
