## What it is
Videogular is an HTML5 video player library and framework for AngularJS (1.x), wrapping the native video tag with bindable directives, theming, and plugin support. It targets desktop and mobile browsers, with a separate successor project (Videogular2) for Angular 2+.

## Use cases
- embed an html5 video player in an angularjs app
- customizable video player with themes for my website
- video player with native fullscreen on mobile browsers
- responsive video player that scales to its container
- extend a video player with custom plugins

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy AngularJS 1.x app that needs a video player
- you want a lightweight wrapper around the native HTML5 video tag with AngularJS bindings

## When to avoid
- you use Angular 2+ or any modern framework - use Videogular2 or another player instead
- you need active maintenance, security updates, or modern browser support
- you are starting a new project today
