This library allows to embed visualizations created with CartoDB in your map or website in a simple way.
- Add cartodb.js and css to your site:
```html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://libs.cartocdn.com/cartodb.js/v3/3.15/themes/css/cartodb.css" />
<script src="http://libs.cartocdn.com/cartodb.js/v3/3.15/cartodb.js"></script>
<!-- use these cartodb.css links if you are using https -->
<!--link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cartodb-libs.global.ssl.fastly.net/cartodb.js/v3/3.15/themes/css/cartodb.css" /-->
<!-- use this cartodb.js link if you are using https -->
<!-- script src="https://cartodb-libs.global.ssl.fastly.net/cartodb.js/v3/3.15/cartodb.js"></script -->
```
- Create the map and add the layer
```javascript
var map = L.map('map').setView([0, 0], 3);
// set a base layer
L.tileLayer('http://a.tile.stamen.com/toner/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
attribution: 'stamen http://maps.stamen.com/'
}).addTo(map);
// add the cartodb layer
var layerUrl = 'http://documentation.cartodb.com/api/v2/viz/2b13c956-e7c1-11e2-806b-5404a6a683d5/viz.json';
cartodb.createLayer(map, layerUrl).addTo(map);
```
