The compiler can be used within CumulusUtils website (intrinsic with the Website Generator [[ChartsCompiler#Implicit_activation|(Implicit Activation)]]) and the output can be used standalone (really standalone if you rename the output to .html) or standalone from within a users website (menu or link; [[ChartsCompiler#Explicit_activation|Explicit Activation]]). When used outside the CumulusUtils infrastructure, you must be aware of the parameters (section general) ''GeneratejQueryInclude'' and ''DoLibraryIncludes''.
