Dynamically inject Fresh8 ads into your React app
Fresh8 React Component
Dynamically inject Fresh8 ads into your React app. This project is mostly a React wrapper around the Fresh8 Javascript Module.
Prerequisite
This project is auto compiled from ES2015 to ES5 by Babel, if you'd like to use the ES2015 code directly you can require it by doing the following:
import Fresh8ReactComponent from 'fresh8-react-component/src';
Getting started
npm install fresh8-react-component --save
import Fresh8ReactComponent from 'fresh8-react-component';
Installation ID's and Slot ID's
During your on-boarding process you'll receive a unique set of ID's for the publications, websites and applications you want to display ads on. We refer to these as "installation ID's", each ID is unique to the publication and allows you to control the ads via our console. Along with these you'll also receive a set of slot ID's that determine what sizes of ad creative will be served to your publications, you can see a list of available slots here.
