a single page site for watching external videos with maximum simplicity

  • Intuitive interface
  • In-page video loading
  • External video hosting

Motivations

  • Didn't want to require users to visit an external page (customer previously sent users to google drive for every video)
  • Wanted to be able host videos on any platform, and use a static (free) host for the site itself (i.e. surge.sh or github pages)
  • Wanted fairly universal usability, across devices of all types

Technologies

Installation

  • Install NodeJS and GatsbyJS (gatsby has step by step instructions at the link)
  • Fork the repository
  • Clone the repository locally
  • Navigate to the cloned repository in your command line
  • Install dependencies using npm install
  • Run gatsby develop and start editing the files to make it your own!

Disclaimers & Notes

  • This is my first real usage of React, Node, Gatsby, or even JS, in any capacity
