Make your JQuery plugin loadable with Require.JS

A simple and easy way to make your JQuery plugin work in an AMD and NON-AMD context is the  following snippet. See how it cleverly uses the factory.

(function (factory) {
if (typeof define === 'function' && define.amd) {
    // AMD. Register as an anonymous module.
    define(['jquery'], factory);
} else {
    // Browser globals
    factory(jQuery);
}
}(function ($) {

    $.fn.jqueryPlugin = function () {
        // Put your plugin code here
    };  

}));
