jQuery - The noConflict()
As you already know; jQuery uses the $ sign as a shortcut for jQuery.
There are many other popular JavaScript frameworks like: Angular, Backbone, Ember, Knockout, and more.
If two different frameworks are using the same shortcut, one of them might stop working.
The jQuery team have already thought about this, and implemented the noConflict() method.
Example
$.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery("button").click(function(){
jQuery("p").text("jQuery is still working!");
});
});
$.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
$("button").click(function(){
$("p").text("jQuery is still working!");
});
});
