For most folks, you'll want to install Slate via npm, in which case you can follow the regular Installing Slate guide.

But, if you'd rather install Slate by simply adding a <script> tag to your application, this guide will help you. To make the "bundled" use case simpler, each version of Slate ships with a bundled source file called slate.js.

To get a copy of slate.js, download the version of slate you want from npm:

And then look in the node_modules folder for the bundled slate.js file:

A minified version called slate.min.js is also included for convenience.

Before you can add slate.js to your page, you need to bring your own copy of react, react-dom and react-dom-server, like so:

This ensures that Slate isn't bundling its own copy of React, which would greatly increase the file size of your application.

Then you can add slate.js after those includes:

To make things easier, for quick prototyping, you can also use the unpkg.com delivery network that makes working with bundled npm modules easier. In that case, your includes would look like:

That's it, you're ready to go!
