Does the GD2 extension come with PHP by default? If yes, since what version does it happen? Is it enabled by default?
thanks (:

To know this we can use phpinfo function and check GD support is available or not. Here is an image of what phpinfo function displays in a GD enabled system. The above image displayed by phpinfo function shows that GD support is enabled in the php system and ready to use.
To enable GD-support configure PHP --with-gd[=DIR], where DIR is the GD base install directory. To use the recommended bundled version of the GD library, use the configure option --with-gd. GD library requires libpng and libjpeg to compile. As of PHP 7.4.
GD2 File Summary Our most recent information indicates that GD2 files are associated with only a single known file type, the GD Library 2 Image File format, and can be viewed with the GD Library software package (developed by Boutell). Generally, these files are considered Graphic Files.
GD isn't compiled with PHP by default but is included with many binary distributions of PHP.
Full details/instructions are here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/image.setup.php

On windows system, it is generally delivered but not installed. You can enable it by decommenting the section in the php.ini file.
On Linux systems (Debian & Ubuntu), on a default installation, it is activated. Rather than doing it in command line as suggests : Atticus, give it a try with a php info!
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
If GD is installed, you'll see it on that page. ;)
