Slow is stable, stable is fast: building Mux Player on the “slow” platform of web components
The text discusses the development of an SDK for web applications called Mux Player. It emphasizes the importance of meeting developers where they are by supporting various front-end frameworks and languages. Web components are chosen as the core technology due to their stability and compatibility with different frameworks. Layers of abstraction are also considered, allowing users to customize the player according to their needs. Accessibility requirements based on WCAG guidelines are met to ensure a seamless experience for all users. Mux Player is already being used in various CMS integrations and example projects.
