## What it is
A tiny (~1 KB) npm package and HTML snippet that displays a super-bright white color on HDR-enabled displays using a minimal MP4 video. On unsupported displays it gracefully falls back to normal white.

## Use cases
- show a brighter-than-white color on HDR screens
- render HDR QR codes that are easier to scan
- embed HDR white in a web page with a tiny data URL
- test whether a display supports HDR brightness

## When to choose
- you need HDR-bright white in a web page with minimal payload
- you want a drop-in HTML snippet or npm package
- you are building HDR QR codes or similar display tricks

## When to avoid
- your target displays do not support HDR
- you need general HDR video or image processing
- you need a well-licensed production dependency (no explicit license in repo)

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: video-processing, graphics
- domain: web-development, frontend, media
- platform: browser
- tags: hdr, display, npm-package, css-trick, video-snippet, web-server
