A framework dictates your code's architecture flow, whereas a library is something you call and can fit in to whatever structure you'd like. An illustrative example for me was learning egui, a library for defining UI elements, by using eframe, a framework built around egui. I tried just using egui on its own, but it would have required a lot more reinventing the wheel, and making design decisions that eframe dictates for me in a way known to work well with this library.
