        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <!-- ************ jQuery *********** -->
        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <script src="/path/to/libraries/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>

        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <!-- ********** Bootstrap ********** -->
        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <!-- ****** depends on jQuery ****** -->
        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <script src="/path/to/libraries/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js"></script>

        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <!-- ********* Underscore ********** -->
        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/libraries/underscore/underscore.js"></script>

        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <!-- *********** Moment ************ -->
        <!-- ******************************* -->
    	<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/libraries/moment/moment.js"></script>

        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <!-- **** depends on Underscore **** -->
        <!-- ****** depends on Moment ****** -->
        <!-- ******************************* -->
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/libraries/bootstrap-calendar/css/calendar.css">
    	<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/libraries/bootstrap-calendar/js/calendar.js"></script>
</head>
[...]

Step 2 : Render the default calendar

e.G.

<body>
    <div id="calendar"></div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        var calendar = $('#calendar').calendar({
            events_source: [
                {
                    "id": 1,
                    "title": "Event 1",
                    "url": "http://example.com",
                    "class": "event-important",
                    "start": moment().valueOf(), // Now in milliseconds
                    "end": moment().add(2, 'days').valueOf() // Now + 2 days in milliseconds
                },
                {
                    "id": 2,
                    "title": "Event 2",
                    "url": "http://example.com",
                    "class": "event-default",
                    "start": moment().add(1, 'days').valueOf(), // Now + 1 day in milliseconds
                    "end": moment().add(3, 'days').valueOf() // Now + 3 days in milliseconds
                },
            ],
            tmpl_path: "/path/to/libraries/bootstrap-calendar/calendar/tmpls/"
        });
    </script>
</body>

⚠️ Be sure to set the path to templates using tmpl_path option.

⚠️ Bootstrap Calendar works only with web paths, not locals ones. Be sure to use a web server (Apache, nginx, PHP built-in server, Symfony built-in server...) if you want to use it.

Step 3 : Check if it works

Go to your favourite web browser and check your page. It should display the default calendar:

Default calendar in your web browser

ℹ️ If the calendar does not work, please open the browser console by tapping F12 to see what's the problem and check the common errors page.
