How to delay a jQuery script until everything else has loaded?

To delay a jQuery script until everything else has loaded, we can call the $(window).bind method with a callback that runs when everything has been loaded.

For instance, we write;

$(window).bind("load", () => {
  console.log('loaded')
});

We call bind with 'load' to listen to the load event on window.

Then when that event is emitted, we call the callback to log 'loaded'.

Conclusion

To delay a jQuery script until everything else has loaded, we can call the $(window).bind method with a callback that runs when everything has been loaded.
