development tools

Development tools are required to install on your system if you have planned to build software. It’s also useful for building packages on your system. Development tools contain few general useful tools like GCC, g++, make, libc6-dev and dpkg-dev packages. The distinction between tools and applications is murky. For example, developers use simple databases (such as a file containing a list of important values) all the time as tools.However a full-blown database is usually thought of as an application or software in its own right.
