Trying to implement bootstrap datepicker to my ASP.NET MVC website

Question

I have the following calls in my View that should let me open the Calendar and select a date, I'm not sure I understand how to implement Datepicker.

<script>
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $(".datepicker").datepicker();
    });
</script>

 <li class="input-group-addon">
       <label><%= CRAWebSiteMVC.Properties.Resources.EndDate %> :</label>                
       <input type="text" class="datepicker" placeholder="Click me!">
 </li>

I have installed bootstrap datepicker on the NuGet, what am I missing or not understanding?

this is how you implement bootstrap datepicker in html page link

  <div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class='col-sm-6'>
            <div class="form-group">
                <div class='input-group date' id='datetimepicker1'>
                    <input type='text' class="form-control" />
                    <span class="input-group-addon">
                        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
                    </span>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            $(function () {
                $('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker();
            });
        </script>
