iVXjs
A library to make data-driven interactive web-experiences with support for video, sound, data collection, decision-trees and animations.

Getting Started
Downloading the library
- Clone this repository or download zip

iVXjs Angular's Dependencies
The Angular iVXjs instance--iVXjs for this documentation--has the following script dependencies:
Let's create a simple iVXjs Experience
To get started, follow the steps below:
- Add the following HTML to the working project file:
<!-- Angular application for this page -->
<div ng-app="app"></div>
<!-- Container for an iVXjs Experience -->
<div id='ivx'></div>
<!-- iVXjs Angular Library Dependencies -->
<script src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.5.0/angular.min.js'></script>
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular-ui-router/1.0.0-alpha.5/angular-ui-router.js'></script>

<script>
angular
.module('app', ['ivx-js'])
.config(['iVXjs', function(iVXjs){
iVXjs.init({
config:"sample-experience.json"
})
}]);
</script>
<!-- Angular Templates -->
<!-- Form Header Template -->
<script type="text/ng-template" id="form-header.html">
<h1>Welcome to an iVXjs Sample Experience</h1>
</script>
<!-- Name Personalization Template -->
<script type="text/ng-template" id="name-personalization.html">
<h1>Hey, {{experience.fullName}}, finding this cool?</h1>
</script>
<!-- Helpful Links Header Template -->
<script type="text/ng-template" id="helpful-links-header.html">
<h1>Now that you have seen it {{experience.fullName}}, create an experience of your own!</h1>
</script>
- Copy the following contents into a file in your project root called "sample-experience.json"

- The result should look like this:
To make it look a little better, let's add some styling. There are some default styles provided in these css files:
- core.css (tools/utilities/css/core.css) - Core styling with iVXjs styling components such as a input grid system, YouTube video sizing, etc.
- basic-style.css (tools/utilities/css/core.css) - A basic style for iVXjs
After adding these css files, the experience should look something like this:
