Exactly, that's why I always prefer libraries over frameworks.

  I prefer creating customized frameworks from libraries. I tend to know more about my particular problem than any generic framework writer. Also, I can focus only on the solutions and features I need. I often don't have to build for the super general case, which often results in a simpler framework that helps rather than hinders.

    Important point there. Frameworks are not to be avoided, but generic frameworks are very dangerous, so usually a custom framework, built with generic libraries, is the better choice.

      But then you are just one abstraction step away from creating the generic framework framework that can spawn custom frameworks as needed.

        Yes you are, and you can choose to go down that path or not.
