What are some best practices for using jQuery to show or hide elements based on PHP variables?

When using jQuery to show or hide elements based on PHP variables, it is important to pass the PHP variables to the JavaScript code using inline script tags or data attributes. This allows the jQuery code to access the PHP variables and dynamically show or hide elements based on their values. 

<?php
// PHP variable
$showElement = true;
?>

<!-- HTML code -->
<div id="element" <?php if($showElement) echo 'style="display:block;"'; else echo 'style="display:none;"'; ?>>
    This element will be shown or hidden based on the PHP variable.
</div>

<!-- jQuery code -->
<script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        var showElement = <?php echo json_encode($showElement); ?>;
        
        if(showElement) {
            $('#element').show();
        } else {
            $('#element').hide();
        }
    });
</script>
