The next step to being a good jQuery developer is to build a few reusable plugins. If you have already embarked on this exciting journey you will notice that there is relatively little documentation on this since it is a relatively simple concept.

After a few plugins you will realize that you want more creative freedom in how your plugins can be used. You want to define an interface that users can use that is more sophisticated than what the official jQuery plugin pattern offers.

This is where this jQuery Plugin Pattern comes in.

The key features of this pattern are:

• Backward compatibility with official jQuery plugin pattern
• Dynamic namespacing of your plugin
• Combine Object Oriented Programming with jQuery
• Save state across jQuery objects
• Stay lightweight and unobtrusive
