import ConnectyCubeChatWidget from '@connectycube/chat-widget/react19';

Place the following script in your app:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <!-- ... -->
  </head>
  <body>
    <!-- ... -->
    <!-- @connectycube/chat-widget - start -->

    <script>
      const chatWidgetContainer = document.createElement('div');
      chatWidgetContainer.id = 'ConnectyCube_chat-widget';
      document.body.appendChild(chatWidgetContainer);
      const props = {
        appId: 111,
        authKey: '11111111-2222-3333-4444-55555555',
        config: { debug: { mode: 1 } },

        },
      };
      ReactDOM.createRoot(chatWidgetContainer).render(React.createElement(ConnectyCubeChatWidget, props));
