new jQuery() → {jQuery}
jQuery is a fast, small, and feature-rich JavaScript library. It makes things like HTML document traversal and manipulation, event handling, animation, and Ajax much simpler with an easy-to-use API
that works across a multitude of browsers. With a combination of versatility and extensibility, jQuery has changed the way that millions of people write JavaScript.

Type Definitions
-
Deferred
-
As of jQuery 1.5, the Deferred object provides a way to register multiple callbacks into self-managed callback queues, invoke callback queues as appropriate, and relay the success or failure state of any synchronous or asynchronous function.
Type:
- object
-
Event
-
jQuery's event system normalizes the event object according to W3C standards. The event object is guaranteed to be passed to the event handler. Most properties from the original event are copied over and normalized to the new event object.
Type:
- object
-
Promise
-
This object provides a subset of the methods of the Deferred object (then, done, fail, always, pipe, and state) to prevent users from changing the state of the Deferred.
