## Overview

This guide walks you through adding voice and video calling capabilities to your React application using the CometChat UI Kit.

</Info>

## Add the Calls SDK

Install the CometChat Calls SDK:

```bash theme={null}
npm install @cometchat/calls-sdk-javascript
```

## Verify Integration

After adding the dependency, the React UI Kit will automatically detect it and activate calling features. You will see [CallButtons](/ui-kit/react/v6/call-buttons) rendered in the [MessageHeader](/ui-kit/react/v6/message-header) component.
