I am trying to understand if there is any difference between:
(function($){
...
})(jQuery);
vs.
(function($){
...
})($);
Note the jQuery was replaced with a $. Is this ok? Is it not used anywhere because it can’t work? It works but maybe it is non-standard? Can someone please explain this if it is an error or if it is ok?
Thanks
Other JavaScript frameworks may also use $ as a shortcut. To guarantee that $ is jQuery inside your function, pass jQuery and not $ at the end. This type of defining a function or “code area” is to take sure that $ really is jQuery when mixing frameworks.
