## Notes

baguetteBox.js is a lightbox script that opens the images of a gallery in an overlay. The page calls `baguetteBox.run` with a CSS selector for the gallery. A title or `data-caption` attribute on the link supplies the caption, and `data-at-{width}` attributes let the overlay pick an image by screen width. The [README](https://github.com/feimosi/baguetteBox.js/blob/dev/README.md) documents the options and the API. The script installs from npm, Yarn, Bower or Composer, or loads from a CDN or from downloaded files.
