what is the difference between window.open() and $window.open() methods.

I see some of the widgets are using $window.open() and others are using $window.open().

Similarly, some are using window.postMessage() and others are using $window.postMessage().

Is there any difference between them like with/without "$" symbol infront of it. ??

Please let me know if you have any information.

Hi @Gautam Krishnan 

Unfortunately, I couldn't find the concrete information about their usage/performance. So, I ended up without changing the things..
