How do you manage plugin conflicts?

Mid JQuery
Quick Answer Plugin conflicts: use jQuery.noConflict() to release the $ variable so another library can use it: var jQ = jQuery.noConflict(). Then use jQ() instead of $(). Wrap your plugin code in an IIFE with $ as a parameter: (function($) { /* plugin code */ })(jQuery) - $ safely refers to jQuery inside regardless of the global $.

Answer

Use $.noConflict() to release $ alias.
Wrap plugin inside closure:
(function($){ $('#el').plugin(); })(jQuery);
