Third-party JavaScript libraries

You can easily use third-party JavaScript libraries from a Script Application.

Any page-level global JavaScript code can be added to the portal theme. Load JavaScript frameworks and libraries on portal pages that require them by including them in profiles and modules. Do not load frameworks by individual applications. When you load frameworks and libraries through profiles and modules, you can easily share them and avoid colliding and reloading libraries across multiple applications on the page.

• Import applications that include links to JavaScript frameworks
  To use a JavaScript framework or library from an application, use portal theme modules to load the shared JavaScript. Do not load them from the application.
