Vime is a customizable, extensible, accessible, and framework-agnostic media player built with web components (Stencil). It provides a unified API for playing HTML5, HLS, DASH, YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion media, with bindings for React, Vue, Svelte, Angular, and Stencil.

Use cases

  • embed a video player in a react app
  • play hls streams in the browser
  • customizable video player with themes
  • play youtube or vimeo videos with a unified api
  • accessible audio player with keyboard support
  • multi-language video player ui
  • replace video.js or plyr with a modern player

When to choose

  • you need one player API across many media providers like YouTube, Vimeo, HLS, and DASH
  • you want a lightweight, accessible, themeable player with framework bindings
  • you want to avoid cross-browser fullscreen and picture-in-picture inconsistencies

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - Vime is announced for deprecation and its successor (Vidstack) should be considered
  • you need server-side media processing or transcoding rather than playback
  • you need a native mobile player rather than a web component
