Head-related functions

Summary

The js_tag() helper function retrieves JavaScript files located within the /javascripts/ folder
of a theme. By using js_tag(), the relative path to the file is dynamically generated for each page.

Note

The queue_js_file helper is preferred to this one for most use cases. Normally, you should only continue to use this helper when you want to output an inline script in the body of the page.
