$ajax not. function,jquery - $.ajax({}) is not a function in django - Stack Overflow

Such related question I have seen so many but none solved my problem. There is other reason why this is not working but I am feeling difficult to figure out the issue. Here is the code

base.html

{% block pagecontent %}

{% endblock pagecontent %}

{% block js %}

{% include 'includes/js.html' %}

$(document).ready(function(){

function updateText(btn, newCount, verb){

btn.text(newCount + " " + verb)

}

$(".like-company").click(function(e){

e.preventDefault()

var this_ = $(this)

var likeUrl = this_.attr("data-href")

var likeCount = parseInt(this_.attr("data-likes")) | 0

var addLike = likeCount + 1

var removeLike = likeCount - 1

if (likeUrl){

$.ajax({

url: likeUrl,

method: "GET",

data: {},

success: function(data){

console.log(data)

var newLikes;

if (data.liked){

updateText(this_, addLike, "Unlike")

} else {

updateText(this_, removeLike, "Like")

}

}, error: function(error){

console.log(error)

console.log("error")

}

})

}

})

})

{% endblock js %}

includes/js.html

{% load static %}

home.html

{% extends 'base.html' %}

{% block pagecontent %}

{% if companies %}

COMPANIES

{% for company in companies %}

{% if forloop.first %}

{% endif %}

{{ company.likes.count }} like

{% endfor %}

{% endif %}

{% endblock pagecontent %}

I have checked that the jquery is loaded and also the code is working up to if (likeUrl)
