Widget Types

There are 2 types of embed option available on DaySchedule for appointment bookings:

1. Popup widget
2. Inline widget

Popup widget

To embed as a button and open the appointment scheduling popup when clicked. We recommends the popup widget, because it's initialized when someone click on the book now button, instead of having it initialize upon page load to improve website speed and performance by avoiding unnecessary requests.

1. Add the dayschedule-popup.css on website header.

<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/dayschedule-widget@latest/dist/dayschedule-popup.css" rel="stylesheet" />

2. Add a onClick function to open the popup when clicked on a button

daySchedule.initPopupWidget({
	url: 'https://meet.dayschedule.com',
	color: {
		primary: '#0f0980',
		secondary: '#afeefe'
	}
});

• Popup examples

Inline widget

To embed the inline appointment scheduling plugin in HTML

<dayschedule-widget url='https://meet.dayschedule.com' options='{ "color": {
        "primary": "#0f0980",
        "secondary": "#afeefe"
    }}'></dayschedule-widget>

Performance

The dayschedule appointment pages are designed for optimal performance, providing users with a smooth and responsive booking experience across desktop, tablet and mobiles.

We optimize each of the functionality to -

1. Minimize network requests
2. Image conversion to WebP (a modern image format developed by Google, to ensure high-quality images while significantly reducing file sizes)
3. Advanced gzip, br compression to minimize the size of assets such as scripts, and stylesheets
4. Low latency with CDN

Making it faster then Calendly, Cal.com etc.

The scheduling pages are hosted on 250+ regions on Cloudflare and/or AWS cloudfront for high-performance and low-latency. So you will always see lightning-fast loading times and efficient caching mechanisms to ensure swift access of your available time slots and services to your customers for online appointment bookings.
