# Intro.js v2.8.0

> Better introductions for websites and features with a step-by-step guide for your projects.

## Where to get
You can obtain your local copy of Intro.js from:

**1)** This github repository, using ```git clone https://github.com/usablica/intro.js.git```

**2)** Using bower ```bower install intro.js --save```

**3)** Using npm ```npm install intro.js --save```

**4)** Download it from CDN ([1](http://www.jsdelivr.com/projects/intro.js), [2](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/intro.js))

## How to use
Intro.js can be added to your site in three simple steps:

**1)** Include `intro.js` and `introjs.css` (or the minified version for production) in your page. Use `introjs-rtl.min.css` for Right-to-Left language support.

> CDN hosted files are available at [jsDelivr](http://www.jsdelivr.com/projects/intro.js) (click Show More) & [cdnjs](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/intro.js).

**2)** Add `data-intro` and `data-step` to your HTML elements. To add hints you should use `data-hint` attribute.

For example:

```html
<a href='http://google.com/' data-intro='Hello step one!'></a>
````

See all attributes [here](https://github.com/usablica/intro.js/wiki/Documentation/#attributes).

**3)** Call this JavaScript function:
```javascript
introJs().start();
````

Optionally, pass one parameter to `introJs` function to limit the presentation section.

**For example** `introJs(".introduction-farm").start();` runs the introduction only for elements with `class='introduction-farm'`.
