> you are either using framework or inventing one.

I disagree, unless you consider using a language to be inherently creating a framework.

Frameworks are generalizations, intended for flexibility. Their abstractions exist, typically, to shield a developer from the lower level stuff.

If you're writing plain ol language of choice code to do a specific thing, it's none of that. People can look at your code and see, oh, he's using built in cookie management and headers and standard language database calls.

It's readable, non abstracted code.
