Below is a set of options which you can use to select DataTables options and components to build a CDN link for the legacy DataTables v1 compatible software. This is similar to the main download builder, which provides the latest versions of all of the DataTables software, but is limited to producing a CDN string only at this time. For npm and other options, you would need to append the version to your added dependencies.
IMPORTANT: THIS IS FOR LEGACY BUILDS ONLY. Use the main download builder for the latest versions of DataTables and its extensions.

Step 3. CDN include
CDN
The DataTables CDN provides a convenient way to quickly get started with DataTables. The DataTables software is hosted on the CDN (powered by CloudFlare) and you simply need to include the HTML and CSS files as directed below.
Use minified files for smaller files sizes and faster downloads.
Combine files together for a, typically, faster download.
The CDN option is not available when Editor is selected. To use Editor with CDN files, deselect Editor, and download Editor directly for local file inclusion. Alternatively, click the download tab above to download all files together.
