Question about shifters and derailleurs

So I am really a noob when it comes to bike mechanics, especially when it comes to index /friction shifters and derailleurs. Are there specific index and friction derailleurs? Can someone replace index shifters with friction ones and keep the same derailleurs? How can you tell if a uninstalled derailleur is index or friction?
