Can someone please explain what this name spacing is doing?
app.framework.superNav = {};
(function (superNav, $) {
// code
})(app.framework.superNav, jQuery);

You should tag this with jQuery as well. – SudoKid Mar 28 '19 at 17:01

This is not a jQuery question. It's an IIFE/scope question – Taplar Mar 28 '19 at 17:01

It's doing nothing except allowing you to use `superNav` to access `app.framework.superNav` variable and `$` for `jQuery` for your `// code`. How it is defined, you still could use the original variables inside, though (unless they are removed afterwards) – Kaddath Mar 28 '19 at 17:09
