What is react-calendly?
The react-calendly npm package allows you to easily integrate Calendly scheduling widgets into your React applications. It provides components to embed Calendly inline, as a popup widget, or as a popup text link, making it simple to add scheduling functionality to your app.
What are react-calendly's main functionalities?
Inline Widget
The InlineWidget component allows you to embed a Calendly scheduling widget directly into your React application. You just need to provide the URL of your Calendly scheduling page.
import { InlineWidget } from 'react-calendly';
function App() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Schedule a Meeting</h1>
<InlineWidget url="https://calendly.com/your-calendly-url" />
</div>
);
}
Popup Widget
The PopupWidget component allows you to add a button that, when clicked, opens a Calendly scheduling widget in a popup. This is useful if you want to keep your page clean and only show the scheduler when needed.
import { PopupWidget } from 'react-calendly';
function App() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Schedule a Meeting</h1>
<PopupWidget url="https://calendly.com/your-calendly-url" />
</div>
);
}
Popup Text
The PopupText component allows you to create a text link that, when clicked, opens a Calendly scheduling widget in a popup. This is useful for integrating scheduling links into your text content.
import { PopupText } from 'react-calendly';
function App() {
return (
<div>
<h1>Schedule a Meeting</h1>
<PopupText url="https://calendly.com/your-calendly-url" text="Click here to schedule!" />
</div>
);
}
