What is it?

Video.js v10 is a media player framework for building video and audio playback interfaces on the Web and in React. Its design centers on modular, composable pieces, so developers assemble a player from the parts they need rather than adopting a single fixed player component.

The project is published as packages under the @videojs scope, with the core package available on npm. It is distributed for HTML and React, and the repository topics also reference Vue and Svelte, along with streaming formats such as HLS and DASH.

The repository includes design RFCs, a contributor guide, and an official website with documentation. It is a successor to the long-running Video.js player, and the README describes v10 as stable.
