jQuery $( function() {} ) and $(document).ready the same?

Do you know which one is better and why?

The first one;

$(document).ready(function() {
  // your code
});

The second One :

$(function() {
  // your code
});

Answer 1

It doesn’t matter. I’m more of a fan of the 2nd case because its easier to type.

This is what the function does internally.

// HANDLE: $(function)
// Shortcut for document ready
} else if ( jQuery.isFunction( selector ) ) {
   return rootjQuery.ready( selector );
}
