Is this a framework or a customizable template?


I believe it's another case of the word "framework" being bastardized. It seems that everybody likes to call their project a "framework". No more are the days of library, template, or package. Everything is a framework.

This makes it significantly harder for projects that are truly are frameworks to distinguish themselves. It's a big mess. I think it might be too late though, I fear the word is already too damaged.
