Answer 1

For small and medium projects like a website or game, the native namespacing and constructors work very well. They are a poor choice when the loading order is too complex to handle without some sort of autoloading.

index.html:

Manager.js:

var Manager = function() {
    var employee1 = new window.Employee(this);
    var employee2 = new window.Employee(this);
};

Employee.js:

var Employee = function(boss) {
    // work stuff here
    this.wage = 5;
};

Note, properties inside the employee constructor function are visible to the manager. The new word signals a constructor. This is also possible without a constructor by returning an object with properties instead of a function as shown above.
