# Integration
Chart.js can be integrated with plain JavaScript or with different module loaders. The examples below show how to load Chart.js in different systems.
## Script Tag
```html
<script src="path/to/chartjs/dist/Chart.js"></script>
<script>
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {...});
</script>
```
## Common JS
```javascript
var Chart = require('chart.js');
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {...});
```
## Bundlers (Webpack, Rollup, etc.)
```javascript
import Chart from 'chart.js';
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {...});
```
## Require JS
**Important:** RequireJS [can **not** load CommonJS module as is](https://requirejs.org/docs/commonjs.html#intro), so be sure to require one of the UMD builds instead (i.e. `dist/Chart.js`, `dist/Chart.min.js`, etc.).
```javascript
require(['path/to/chartjs/dist/Chart.min.js'], function(Chart){
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {...});
});
```
**Note:** in order to use the time scale, you need to make sure [one of the available date adapters](https://github.com/chartjs/awesome#adapters) and corresponding date library are fully loaded **after** requiring Chart.js. For this you can use nested requires:
```javascript
require(['chartjs'], function(Chart) {
require(['moment'], function() {
require(['chartjs-adapter-moment'], function() {
new Chart(ctx, {...});
});
});
});
```
