Why to use libraries over Json-RPC to interact with Blockchain

Question

Json-RPC provides methods to interact with the Blockchain from application. Then why is it suggested to use libraries to interact with the Blockchain?

Answer 1

Though Json-RPC provides methods to interact with the Blockchain, there are certain rules to be followed to use Json-RPC such as:

• JSON-RPC protocol implementation
• Binary format encoding/decoding for creating and interacting with smart contracts
• 256-bit numeric types
• Admin command support

This is a headache for developers because it is an extra task for them. The libraries are designed to follow these rules by default and so it's easier to use the libraries
