 For platforms like [Meteor](https://www.meteor.com) without direct use of `npm` modules, a minified version of `ReactPlayer` is located in `dist` after installing. To generate this file yourself, checkout the repo and run `npm run build:browser`
 
+#### Bower
+
+```bash
+bower install react-player --save
+```
+
+```html
+  <script src='bower_components/react/react.js'></script>
+  <script src='bower_components/react/react-dom.js'></script>
+  <script src='bower_components/react-player/dist/ReactPlayer.js'></script>
