# Code snippets

The main code snippet to enable BabelShark translation is available at your project page:

Adding this code snippet initiates the loading of BabelShark code, its API and project settings. If current user has a translation language selected, the project will seamlessly switch to that language.

## Language drop-down

If you want to display a built-in language selection drop-down, add `.bs-activator` element to the required position:

```html
<span class="bs-activator" data-drop="auto"></span>
```

This will render a language selector:
