Once you have the files, add links to jQuery and Foundation as `<script>` tags at the bottom of your page, just before the closing `<body>` tag.
```html
+<!-- jQuery must be imported before Foundation -->
<script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!-- this will include every plugin and utility required by Foundation -->
<script src="js/foundation.min.js"></script>
```
-<div class="callout warning">
- <p>Make sure Foundation loads <em>after</em> jQuery.</p>

-### Babel Required
-Our JavaScript uses some features of ECMAScript 2015. **If you use Foundation with a build system, you'll need to compile our code to ES5.** We use [Babel](https://babeljs.io/) in our templates to do this. Babel has [plugins](https://babeljs.io/docs/setup/) for every build system imaginable, so integrating it into an existing setup is easy.
+### Import in HTML
-When configuring Babel to work with Foundation, you only need to include the `es2015` preset. At the root of your project, add a file called `.babelrc` with these contents to load that configuration:
+You can import in your HTML the complete Foundation library `foundation.min.js` like above, but also each plugin individually.
-```json
-{
- "presets": ["es2015"]
-}
+```html
+<!-- Example of selectively including files -->
+<script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script> <!-- Required -->
+<script src="js/foundation.core.min.js"></script> <!-- Required -->
+<script src="js/foundation.util.mediaQuery.min.js"></script>
+<script src="js/foundation.tabs.min.js"></script>
+<script src="js/foundation.accordion.min.js"></script>
```
-### File Structure
+Know that they all require `foundation.core.js` to be loaded *first*. Some plugins also require specific utility libraries that ship with Foundation—refer to a plugin's documentation to find out which plugins require what, and see the [JavaScript Utilities](javascript-utilities.html) page for more information.
-All of Foundation's plugins ship both as importable ES2016 modules, and as individual precompiled "drop in" files, named `foundation.tabs.js`, `foundation.accordion.js`, and so on. These files are also combined into one big file called `foundation.js`, which allows you to get every plugin at once. The precompiled files live in the `dist` folder, while the importable modules live in the `js` folder.
+<div class="callout warning">
+ <p>Loading many individual files like this creates a lot of network overhead, especially for users on mobile networks. To keep your pages loading quick, we recommend using a tool like <a href="http://gruntjs.com">Grunt</a> or <a href="http://gulpjs.com">Gulp</a> to combine all of your JavaScript files into one.</p>
+</div>
-If you're not familiar with module bundling, you'll probably want to reference the precompiled files from `dist`.
+### Import in JavaScript
-If you're only using certain plugins, know that they all require `foundation.core.js` and `foundation.util.mediaQuery.js` to be loaded *first*. Some plugins also require specific utility libraries that ship with Foundation—refer to a plugin's documentation to find out which plugins require what, and see the [JavaScript Utilities](javascript-utilities.html) page for more information.
+Foundation is exported as [UMD modules](http://bob.yexley.net/umd-javascript-that-runs-anywhere/). This means that Foundation and its plugins can be imported in any JavaScript environnement.
-```html
-<!-- Example of selectively including files -->
-<script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>
-<script src="js/foundation.core.js"></script>
-<script src="js/foundation.util.mediaQuery.js"></script>
-<script src="js/foundation.tabs.js"></script>
-<script src="js/foundation.accordion.js"></script>
+For example with [ES6](https://github.com/lukehoban/es6features#readme) (the ESM format):
+```js
+import Foundation from 'foundation-sites';
+const $dropdown = new Foundation.Dropdown('#mydropdown');
+// Or
+import { Dropdown } from 'foundation-sites';
+const $dropdown = new Dropdown('#mydropdown');
```
