# Install

## Dependencies for browser

    <script src="https://unpkg.com/quickblox@2.15.1/quickblox.min.js"></script>

## Bower and RequireJS

If you use the bower package manager for your project, you can install the JS SDK through bower:

    bower install quickblox --save

When you use RequireJS, you are able to use QuickBlox as an AMD compliant module. The SDK supports the UMD (Universal Module Definition) pattern for JavaScript modules, so it is possible to use the SDK everywhere (as a global variable in the browser via an AMD module loader like RequireJS or as a CommonJS module in a Node.js environment).

## Node.js and NPM integration

Also you can use QuickBlox JavaScript SDK with server-side applications on NodeJS through the native node package. Just install the package in your application project like this:

    npm install quickblox --save

And you're ready to go:

    var QB = require("quickblox");

    // OR to create many QB instances
    var QuickBlox = require("quickblox").QuickBlox;
    var QB1 = new QuickBlox();
    var QB2 = new QuickBlox();
