ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a hosting server in order for images to appear on a particular internet site. They allow you to execute various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etc. These things can be performed online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the website or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution that the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with many web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't need to stick to just one language to develop your website. They work with more than a hundred formats, including the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
