3. Include jQuery library and jQuery Herotabs on the page

<script src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="dist/jquery.herotabs.js"></script> 

4. Call the plugin with options

$('.tabs-standard').herotabs({
delay: 2000
});

5. Default settings.

// How long between each tab change
delay: 0,

// Fade transition between tabs
duration: 0,

// Easing types
easing: 'ease-in-out',

// Will reverse display order of tabs when on a timed delay

// Classes applied to the HTML structure
