How can I ensure global JS dependencies load before partial scripts in Django templates?

The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.

I am refactoring my Django templates to use components for better maintainability and reduce duplication. Specifically, I am using {% include %} to include HTML and JavaScript from partial templates, but now I face an issue with the order of script execution.

Here’s the structure of my templates:

HTML
<!-- base.html --> <head>...</head> <body> {% block content %}{% endblock %} <script> <!--- jQuery and other global JS dependencies ---> </script> {% block script %}{% endblock %} </body>
HTML
<!-- child.html --> {% extends 'base.html' %} {% block content %} child 1 {% include 'partial.html' %} ... {% endblock %} {% block script %} <script>// Script 1</script> {% endblock %}
HTML
<!-- partial.html --> <div>Partial content</div> {% block script %} <script>// Script 2</script> {% endblock %}

The rendered HTML appears as follows:

HTML
<head>...</head> <body> child 1 <div>Partial content</div> <script>// Script 2</script> <script><!--- jQuery and other global JS dependencies ---></script> <script>// Script 1</script> </body>

This causes Script 2 to execute before the jQuery and other global dependencies from base.html. How can I ensure that the JavaScript defined in partials (such as Script 2) is placed after the global scripts, ensuring proper dependency order, even when using {% include %}?
