Overview
A Follow Button custom element was developed using Twitter's @Anywhere API. It is extremely easy to use.

Note: Verify the path for the render handler points to the ADF mapping, not the current site's mapping.
Demo
To set up a demo of the Follow Button custom element, follow these steps:
- Create a new page and place the Follow Button element on the page.
- Click the 'New Data' button.
- Type in the Twitter username for the button and click Save.
- Submit the changes to the page.
Alternate Method
You can also add Follow Buttons programatically inside a Custom Script like this:
