<vaa-embed>

A web component by Altinget for embedding our Voting Advice Application (VAA) in your web page.

Only works for customers of the VAA.

Installation

We recommend adding the component with a script tag like so:

<script
  src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@altinget/vaa-embed@2/dist/bundles/vaa-embed.min.js"
  type="module"
></script>

But it's also possible to add the component to your project by importing it with NPM or Yarn

# NPM
npm i vaa-embed

# Yarn
yarn add vaa-embed

And then importing it in the html like so:

<script type="module">
  import 'vaa-embed/vaa-embed.js';
</script>

Usage

After installing and import the component you can invoke it anywhere on your page like so:

<vaa-embed />

The component accepts the following attributes:

• src: The URL of the VAA to embed. Can be a subroute if you want to start on a specific page (like the ballot).
