jwplayer-video-element

<jwplayer-video>

A custom element (web component) for the JW player.

The element API matches the HTML5 <video> tag, so it can be easily swapped with other media, and be compatible with other UI components that work with the video tag.

One of the goals was to have <jwplayer-video> seamlessly integrate with Media Chrome.
