<p>The various Classes and Functions are available to be imported manually from sub-packages under the <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=%40ethersproject%2F">@ethersproject</a> but for most projects, the umbrella package is the easiest way to get started.</p>

<p>It is generally better practice (for security reasons) to copy the <a href="https://cdn.ethers.io/lib/ethers-5.0.min.js">ethers library</a> to your own webserver and serve it yourself.</p><p>For quick demos or prototyping though, it can be loaded in your Web Applications from our CDN.</p>
