jQuery noConflict()

Avoiding conflicts.

jQuery noConflict() Method

What if other JavaScript frameworks allow to use the $ character as a shortcut?

The noConflict() method releases the hold on the $ shortcut identifier, so that other scripts can use it.

You can of course still use jQuery, simply by writing the full name instead of the shortcut: jQuery

Example

$.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
  jQuery("button").click(function(){
    jQuery("p").text("jQuery is still working!");
  });
});
