Material library?

Fairly new to Fusion, and having trouble getting a grasp of it, in multiple ways. I have decades of experience on GibbsCam and FeatureCam, and can hand program without issue. 

Most other Cam systems, you pick a material for the part, and the system pulls the speeds and feeds you set up in the material library. Seems that Fusion doesn’t work that way, and my Google searching leads to people making different tool libraries for each material. 

Is that what most do? Massive lists of different tool libraries? One for carbon, one for 3xx series, one for 4xx series, one for aluminum, one for copper, etc, etc? Or, do you just wing it on the fly with one tool library, and a calculator?
