What JavaScript libraries are known to use the global dollar sign: window.$?
Which JavaScript libraries take over the $
variable in the global scope?
If the library provides a different name on the global namespace, or provides a method to relinquish window.$
, could you link to the proper function in their documentation any maybe a little code example of its use?
Having such a list could be useful in debugging potential conflicts with each other very quickly.

-
jQuery - Provides
jQuery.noConflict()
to release the$
- Prototype
