jquery - $(window).on('resize') in JavaScript -
in javascript, following code: window.onresize = function() { // something. } the same as: $(window).on('resize', function () { // something. }); are 2 code blocks above equal, functionality-wise? there advantage or disadvantage (however minor) using 1 or other? what about: window.addeventlistener('resize', function(event) { // something. }); they aren't same, in first example, you're affecting event dom object onresize handler. the jquery version doing different behind scene. without looking source code, doing: window.addeventlistener('resize', function () {...}) that said, jquery version , native addeventlistener still different because jquery adding magic event handler. and addeventlistenener prefered way add event dom object, because can add multiple events dom attribute on[event] you're limited 1 event. here's bit more it: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-us/docs/web/api/eventtarget/addevent
