25 Nov 20234 minutes to read

The Essential JS 2 for JavaScript (global script) is an ES5 formatted pure JavaScript framework that can be directly used in latest web browsers.

Component initialization

The Essential JS 2 JavaScript components can be initialized by using any of the following two ways:

  • Using local script and style references in an HTML page.
  • Using CDN link for script and style reference.

Using local script and style references in an HTML page

Step 1: Create an app folder myapp for Essential JS 2 JavaScript components.

Step 2: You can get the global scripts and styles from the Essential Studio JavaScript (Essential JS 2) build installed location.

Syntax:

Script: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\dist\global\{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js

Styles: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\styles\material.css

Example:

Script: C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-layouts\dist\global\ej2-layouts.min.js

Styles: C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\16.3.0.17\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-layouts\styles\material.css

The below located script and style file contains all Syncfusion JavaScript (ES5) UI control resources in a single file.

Scripts: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\dist\ej2.min.js

Styles: **(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\material.css

Step 3: Create a folder myapp/resources, and copy and paste the global scripts and styles from the above installed location to myapp/resources location.

Step 4: Create an HTML page (index.html) in myapp location and add the Essentials JS 2 script and style references.

<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
       <head>
            <title>Essential JS 2</title>
            <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
            <link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
       </head>
       <body>
       </body>
  </html>

Step 5: Now, create a span element to apply the Essential JS 2 Avatar component in the index.html by using following code.

<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
       <head>
            <title>Essential JS 2</title>
            <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
            <link href="resources/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

       </head>
       <body>
            <!-- Add the HTML <span> element  -->
             <span class='e-avatar'>A</span>
       </body>
  </html>

Step 6: Now, run the index.html in web browser, it will render the Essential JS 2 Avatar component.

Step 1: Create an app folder myapp for the Essential JS 2 JavaScript components.

Step 2: The Essential JS 2 component’s global scripts and styles are already hosted in the following CDN link formats.

Syntax:

Script: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js

Styles: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/styles/material.css

Example:

Styles: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/ej2-layouts/styles/material.css

Step 3: Create an HTML page (index.html) in myapp location and add the CDN link references. Now, add the span element and initiate the Essential JS 2 Avatar component in the index.html by using the following code.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>

     <title>Essential JS 2</title>
     <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
     <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/28.1.33/ej2-base/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
     <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/28.1.33/ej2-layouts/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet"
          type="text/css" />
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/syncfusion-helper.js" type ="text/javascript"></script>
</head>

<body>
     <!-- Add the HTML <span> element  -->
     <span class='e-avatar'>A</span>
</body>

</html>

Step 4: Now, run the index.html in the web browser, it will render the Essential JS 2 avatar component.

Need to refer dependency component styles and scripts as like above example. We can also use CRG to generate combined component styles.
