When adding local or third party stylesheets and scripts to WordPress, don't just put the link and script tags in the HTML.

Instead, use wp_enqueue_style() and wp_enqueue_script() to load the resources within the WordPress ecosystem.

When developing in a given platform, always use that platforms tools and functions.

In this instance, you can avoid loading order problems, scripts not being initialized at the proper times, and can even alter the scripts using other WordPress functions, actions, and filters.
