@freudWong They are two different ways of looking at something. Letâs say we are talking about your contribution to a project.
If something is an integral PART of a project, the whole project will fall apart if itâs not there. âThe software program freudWong wrote is an integral part of our new app.âIt may not be the only integral part, but your program was a necessary part and there would be no app without it.
Indispensable is a compliment referring to something that you canât do without. âFreudWongâs services were indispensable in the creation and improvement of our new app.â They couldnât have done it without your services.
