Events are user interactions with your website that are being tracked by our various JavaScript snippets. ReSci tracks a number of standard events by default. In addition to standard events, custom (user-defined) events are also supported.
All of the JS events work in a similar fashion, and share certain commonalities across the various events.

Commonalities across all JS events
- There is a static site ID that is always a string unique to your site, this will be provided during your Onboarding Kickoff call.
- There is always an "if" condition to analyze if a user is logged in or not, and if they are you should add the user_id or email value in the wave as indicated in the code examples.
- Only one is needed to ID the user.
- We do cookie track users, so users that have browsed anonymously will have past actions associated automatically if they ever log in or click on an email and land onsite.
- There is always a final "track" code line (static) which causes the event to be tracked.
- There is always the immediately invoked function at the end of each script which is required for the JS tracking to work.
