# AWS SDK for JavaScript [](https://nodei.co/npm/aws-sdk/) [](https://gitter.im/aws/aws-sdk-js) [](http://badge.fury.io/js/aws-sdk) [](https://travis-ci.org/aws/aws-sdk-js) [](https://coveralls.io/r/aws/aws-sdk-js?branch=master) The official AWS SDK for JavaScript, available for browsers and mobile devices, or Node.js backends For release notes, see the [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md). Prior to v2.4.8, release notes can be found at http://aws.amazon.com/releasenotes/SDK/JavaScript
If you are upgrading from 1.x to 2.0 of the SDK, please see the {file:UPGRADING.md} notes for information on how to migrate existing code to work with the new major version.
## Installing ### In the Browser To use the SDK in the browser, simply add the following script tag to your HTML pages: You can also build a custom browser SDK with your specified set of AWS services. This can allow you to reduce the SDK's size, specify different API versions of services, or use AWS services that don't currently support CORS if you are working in an environment that does not enforce CORS. To get started: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide/building-sdk-for-browsers.html The AWS SDK is also compatible with [browserify](http://browserify.org). ### In Node.js The preferred way to install the AWS SDK for Node.js is to use the [npm](http://npmjs.org) package manager for Node.js. Simply type the following into a terminal window: ```sh npm install aws-sdk ``` ### Using Bower You can also use [Bower](http://bower.io) to install the SDK by typing the following into a terminal window: ```sh bower install aws-sdk-js ``` ## Usage and Getting Started You can find a getting started guide at: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v2/developer-guide ## Usage with TypeScript The AWS SDK for JavaScript bundles TypeScript definition files for use in TypeScript projects and to support tools that can read `.d.ts` files. Our goal is to keep these TypeScript definition files updated with each release for any public api. ### Pre-requisites Before you can begin using these TypeScript definitions with your project, you need to make sure your project meets a few of these requirements: * Use TypeScript v2.x * Includes the TypeScript definitions for node. You can use npm to install this by typing the following into a terminal window: ```sh npm install --save-dev @types/node ``` * Your `tsconfig.json` or `jsconfig.json` includes `'dom'` and `'es2015.promise'` under `compilerOptions.lib`. See [tsconfig.json](./ts/tsconfig.json) for an example. ### In the Browser To use the TypeScript definition files with the global `AWS` object in a front-end project, add the following line to the top of your JavaScript file: ```javascript ///Note: Although all services are supported in the browser version of the SDK, not all of the services are available in the default hosted build (using the script tag provided above). Instructions on how to build a custom version of the SDK with individual services are provided in the "Building the SDK for Browsers" section of the SDK Developer Guide.
