@voorhoede/vue-dato-video

Fully optimized video component for videos from Dato CMS.

Features

• Supports both Vimeo and YouTube.
• Has a fixed ratio, so space is reserved before the video is loaded. This prevents annoying layout jumps.
• Supports an optional video caption.
• Has a cover image that lazy loads, meaning the image will only be downloaded when necessary, resulting in much faster page loads.
• Supports autoplay.
• Vapor Mode ready.

npm install @voorhoede/vue-dato-video
