Step 1: Installation

To use the Circular Rating component, you'll need to install it first. You can do this by following these steps:

1. Go to the download page of the Circular Rating component and download the necessary files (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript).
2. Extract the downloaded files to a folder on your computer.
3. Copy the HTML file and add it to your website's HTML file (usually index.html).
4. Link the CSS and JavaScript files to your HTML file by adding the following lines of code:

   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/circular-rating.css">
   <script src="path/to/circular-rating.js"></script>

   Step 2: Configuring the Rating

Now that you've installed the Circular Rating component, you need to configure it to work with your website or application. Here's how:

1. Open the HTML file and find the <div> element that contains the rating component.
2. Add the data-rating attribute to the <div> element and set its value to the number of stars you want to display (e.g., data-rating="5").
3. Add the data-size attribute to the <div> element and set its value to the size of the rating circle (e.g., data-size="200").
4. Add the data-color attribute to the <div> element and set its value to the color of the rating circle (e.g., data-color="#FFC107").
5. Add the data-animate attribute to the <div> element and set its value to true if you want the rating to animate when the user interacts with it (e.g., data-animate="true").

Here's an example of what the HTML code might look like:

<div data-rating="5" data-size="200" data-color="#FFC107" data-animate="true">
  <span class="cr-rating"></span>
</div>

Step 3: Styling the Rating

The Circular Rating component comes with a default style, but you can customize it to fit your website's design. Here's how:

1. Open the circular-rating.css file and find the CSS classes that control the appearance of the rating component (e.g., .cr-rating, .cr-star, .cr-circle).
2. Modify the CSS styles to change the appearance of the rating component (e.g., change the font size, color, or background color).
3. Add custom CSS styles to the rating component by using the .cr-rating class as a selector (e.g., .cr-rating { font-size: 24px; color: #333; }).

Here's an example of what the customized CSS code might look like:

.cr-rating {
  font-size: 24px;
  color: #333;
}

.cr-star {
  background-color: #4CAF50;
}

.cr-circle {
  border: 1px solid #ddd;
}

Step 4: Customizing the Rating

The Circular Rating component provides several customization options that allow you to tailor the rating experience to your specific needs. Here's how:

1. Use the data-interactive attribute to enable or disable user interaction with the rating component (e.g., data-interactive="true").
2. Use the data-tooltip attribute to display a tooltip when the user hovers over the rating component (e.g., data-tooltip="Example tooltip").
3. Use the data-position attribute to change the position of the rating component on the page (e.g., data-position="bottom").

Here's an example of what the customized HTML code might look like:

<div data-rating="5" data-size="200" data-color="#FFC107" data-animate="true" data-interactive="true" data-tooltip="Example tooltip" data-position="bottom">
