Popcorn.js is an event system for < video >, with strong syntactic sugar for chaining < video > methods and adding events to the timeline.

Popcorn is a JavaScript Function that wraps the native < video > element and returns a Popcorn object which;

|
1. maintains a reference to the original HTMLVideoElement

|
|
|
2. provides a normalized interface to the < video > elements native methods and properties.

|
|
|
3. adds a special data property which contains meta data about the <video> (this is where the magic happens)

|
|
|
By normalizing the native methods, the framework allows developers to write chainable function executions off the returned Popcorn object.

Plugin Factory

|
|
|

-------------
|
|
|
|
|
Popcorn also offers a plugin factory. Popcorn plugins are a way for developers to wrap functionality that responds to a point in a video.
