About

This app is a scroll-based video player that allows users to interactively play a series of videos by scrolling through the page. The app is designed to provide a seamless experience where the playback of videos is synchronized with the user's scroll position, creating an engaging and dynamic viewing experience. To use the app, users simply scroll down the page to play the videos. As they scroll, the app calculates the scroll progress and adjusts the playback of the videos accordingly. Each video plays in sequence based on how far the user has scrolled, and the current video is displayed prominently while others fade out. A visual scrollbar indicates the user's progress through the video content. The app is built using modern web technologies, including React for the user interface and Next.js for server-side rendering and routing. It utilizes TypeScript for type safety and improved developer experience. The videos are hosted on a cloud storage service, and the app employs URL rewrites to manage video sources efficiently. Key features of the app include: - Scroll-based video playback that synchronizes with the user's scroll position. - Dynamic loading of video metadata to ensure smooth playback. - Touch device support with scroll snap functionality for a better mobile experience. - A loading screen that informs users while videos are being prepared. - Visual indicators such as a scrollbar and video titles to enhance user interaction. - Error handling for video loading issues to ensure a robust experience. Overall, this app provides an innovative way to experience video content, leveraging scrolling as a means of control and engagement.
