Fitvids.Js

What do you like best?

Mostly everyone now uses jQuery to build static/dynamic websites. If you are one of those developers, Fitvids.js will help you to embed videos to your web pages very easily in a lightweight manner.

Ever tried to embed a video from video by copying the iframe tag from the youtube video? All of us who has the need for doing it has done it at some point in our lives. But the problem here is that the iframe is not responsive and will not change size according to the device width. Then you will have to write CSS code to make it responsive. Luckily now you have a JavaScript library that uses jQuery to embed the videos for you.

It is responsive, fast, lightweight, supports all the browsers, and easy to use.

What do you dislike?

There is a jQuery dependency though, if your website is not using jQuery, then you will not be able to use this plugin.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

It is always better to use libraries to do your work because the developers of the library are really experienced and write a very lightweight code for you. Also, the latest CDNs have all such popular libraries cached.

I have embedded videos to the website of the company where I used to intern: https://iotappslab.com/about-us/videos.html
