Finding

The rule (lastUpdated: 2015-09-10) focuses on jQuery's .ready() and shows examples using $(function() {...}). It does not mention modern alternatives (the defer attribute, DOMContentLoaded, or ES module loading) nor that many projects no longer require jQuery.

Suggestions

  • Add guidance to prefer native techniques: defer on scripts, DOMContentLoaded, or using ES modules (type="module") for initialization.
  • Note when framework lifecycle hooks are preferable (React/Vue/Angular) and when a small site might still use vanilla JS.
  • Replace jQuery examples with modern equivalents and link to MDN references for DOMContentLoaded and defer.
