What Are Frameworks?
What the heck are frameworks?
I hear developers say that word all the time and I am very, very, VERY confused + frustrated!
Is it a library? Is it a module script that you call functions from? If so how?
I don't know what it is, what it does, nor how to use it. I've been trying to find out how but no one has posted any information about it according to Google. The wiki isn't a big help either, it just takes a giant loop around the question and doesn't tell me anything I don't already know. >:C
If someone could specify what is a framework and how can I use it in a game with an example that would be great!

"a basic structure underlying a system, concept, or text."

That's basically it. Try not to over complicate it, the more you do, the harder it will be to grasp. A framework is just and idea, or demonstration that supports something that's growing, improving, or starting.
Example
You could say making a player list GUI and an inventory system is a framework for an RPG. Or a few guns and a map changer is a framework for an FPS game.
