Client Side Code

The client side code is not required to run Hood CMS as all required JS/CSS are served via jsdelivr. However, if you want to extend or modify the client side code, you can download this npm package, which contains the required distribution CSS and JavaScript, as well as source SCSS and TypeScript files.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/hoodcms

To install Hood CMS client side code via NPM.

> npm install hoodcms

or

> yarn add hoodcms

To use your own client side code, you will also need to update script/link references in your theme's HTML or Razor C# files to use your own version of the code, rather than the CDN.
