Getting started with JavaScript (ES5) Avatar control

08 May 2023 / 3 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/{RELEASE_VERSION}/Essential JS 2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js

Styles: **(installed location)**/Syncfusion/Essential Studio/{RELEASE_VERSION}/Essential JS 2/{PACKAGE_NAME}/styles/material.css

Example:

Script: C:/Program Files (x86)/Syncfusion/Essential Studio/15.4.17/Essential JS 2/ej2-lists/dist/global/ej2-lists.min.js

Styles: C:/Program Files (x86)/Syncfusion/Essential Studio/15.4.17/Essential JS 2/ej2-layouts/styles/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.

        <!-- 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.

  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
   <head>
        <title>Essential JS 2</title>
        <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
        <ink 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/ej2/21.2.3/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js

Styles: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/21.2.3/{PACKAGE_NAME}/styles/material.css

Example:

Styles: https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/21.2.3/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.

        <!-- Essential JS 2 material theme -->
        <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/21.2.3/ej2-base/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
        <link href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/21.2.3/ej2-layouts/styles/material.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
   </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.
