Here’s how to insert an external JavaScript file or some inline JavaScript in your HTML documents.
External script file:
<script src="doStuff.js"></script>
Inline script:
<script>
// your code here
</script>
Where you insert the JavaScript influences the load order. Essential stuff like jQuery itself is usually placed in the <head> section and stuff that can be loaded last like tracking scripts can usually be right before the closing </body> tag.
type=“text/javascript”
type=“text/javascript” is optional and unnecessary since HTML5. You’ll see it often in code, but you don’t have to use it in your own code.
