Installation

Mithril is available from a variety of sources:

---

Direct download

You can download a zip of the latest version version here.

Links to older versions can be found in the change log

In order to use Mithril, extract it from the zip file and point a script tag to the .js file:

<script src="mithril.min.js"></script>

---

CDNs (Content Delivery Networks)

You can also find Mithril in cdnjs and jsdelivr

Content delivery networks allow the library to be cached across different websites that use the same version of the framework, and help reduce latency by serving the files from a server that is physically near the user's location.

CdnJs

<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mithril/0.1.3/mithril.min.js"></script>

JsDelivr

<script src="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/mithril/0.1.3/mithril.min.js"></script>
