At build time, these small modules are compiled to simple var statements. This makes it easy for us to share variables across modules. Browse the "src" folder for examples. + ### Browser support Remember that jQuery supports multiple browsers and their versions; any contributed code must work in all of them. You can refer to the [browser support page](https://jquery.com/browser-support/) for the current list of supported browsers. |
