Absolutely the best way of doing it.

Nope it is a application for developing HTML documents. PROVIDED you are already well versed and capable with web delopment markup language (HTML) and styling language (CSS).

A pre-built library of methods and properties that can be used in applications.

It means you con't have to write them yourself.

All of them and none of them. It is subjective. The "best" one is the one that meets your needs for the project you are working on.

frameworks can sometimes help.
more often than not though, the time it takes to get your head around the way they are designed (architecturally not visually) you'd be better sticking to your own tried and tested methods.
