# Integrating with Rails
This page explains how to integrate Shoelace with a Rails app.
:::tip
This is a community-maintained document. Please [ask the community](/resources/community) if you have questions about this integration. You can also [suggest improvements](https://github.com/shoelace-style/shoelace/blob/next/docs/tutorials/integrating-with-rails.md) to make it better.
:::
## Requirements
This integration has been tested with the following:
- Rails >= 6
- Node >= 12.10
- Webpacker >= 5
## Instructions
To get started using Shoelace with Rails, the following packages must be installed.
```bash
yarn add @shoelace-style/shoelace copy-webpack-plugin
```
### Importing the Default Theme
The next step is to import Shoelace's default theme (stylesheet) in `app/javascript/stylesheets/application.scss`.
```css
@import '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/themes/light';
@import '@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/themes/dark'; // Optional dark theme
```
Fore more details about themes, please refer to [Theme Basics](/getting-started/themes#theme-basics).
### Importing Required Scripts
After importing the theme, you'll need to import the JavaScript files for Shoelace. Add the following code to `app/javascript/packs/application.js`.
```js
import '../stylesheets/application.scss'
import { setBasePath, SlAlert, SlAnimation, SlButton, ... } from '@shoelace-style/shoelace'
// ...
const rootUrl = document.currentScript.src.replace(/\/packs.*$/, '')
// Path to the assets folder (should be independent from the current script source path
// to work correctly in different environments)
setBasePath(rootUrl + '/packs/js/')
```
### webpack Config
Next we need to add Shoelace's assets to the final build output. To do this, modify `config/webpack/environment.js` to look like this.
```js
const { environment } = require('@rails/webpacker');
// Shoelace config
const path = require('path');
const CopyPlugin = require('copy-webpack-plugin');
// Add shoelace assets to webpack's build process
environment.plugins.append(
'CopyPlugin',
new CopyPlugin({
patterns: [
{
from: path.resolve(__dirname, '../../node_modules/@shoelace-style/shoelace/dist/assets'),
to: path.resolve(__dirname, '../../public/packs/js/assets')
}
]
})
);
module.exports = environment;
```
### Adding Pack Tags
The final step is to add the corresponding `pack_tags` to the page. You should have the following `tags` in the `<head>` section of `app/views/layouts/application.html.erb`.
```html
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<!-- ... -->
<%= stylesheet_pack_tag 'application', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %> <%= javascript_pack_tag
'application', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>
</head>
<body>
<%= yield %>
</body>
</html>
```
Now you can start using Shoelace components with Rails!
