# Installation
Tesseract.js works with a `<script>` tag via local copy or cdn, or with `npm` (if you're using webpack / browserify).
## `<script/>`
First grab copies of `tesseract.js` and `tesseract.worker.js` from the [dist folder ](https://github.com/naptha/tesseract.js/tree/master/dist ). Then include `tesseract.js` on your page like this:
```html
< script src = '/path/to/tesseract.js' > < / script >
< script >
var worker = createTesseractWorker('/path/to/tesseract.worker.js')
worker.recognize('#my-image')
.progress(function (p) { console.log('progress', p) })
.then(function (result) { console.log('result', result) })
< / script >
```
After that, you should
## npm
```shell
npm install tesseract
```
