I would like to have Select2.js working with Django. There's django-select2
available for this but for the things I am doing, the author advises that I use native Select2.
I was referring to basic code example here https://select2.org/getting-started/basic-usage
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.0.min.js"></script>
<!--Select2.js-->
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.10/css/select2.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.10/js/select2.min.js"></script>
<select class="js-example-basic-multiple" multiple="multiple" name="lv0">
<option value="US">US</option>
<option value="UK">UK</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.js-example-basic-multiple').select2({
placeholder: 'Select an Lv0'
});
});
</script>
However, I only get below.
Console log below. I am not sure if it is because select2 files are not loaded? I added them in bower_components folder of the project, but can't successfully referring to them using local path as error shows file not found.
jquery.min.js:2 jQuery.Deferred exception: $(...).select2 is not a function TypeError: $(...).select2 is not a function

What am I missing here? Thanks.
