What do you like best about Fitvids.Js?

Mostly everyone now uses jQuery to build static/dynamic websites. If you are one of those developers, Fitvids.js will help you to embed videos to your web pages very easily in a lightweight manner.

Ever tried to embed a video from video by copying the iframe tag from the youtube video? All of us who has the need for doing it has done it at some point in our lives. But the problem here is that the iframe is not responsive and will not change size according to the device width. Then you will have to write CSS code to make it responsive. Luckily now you have a JavaScript library that uses jQuery to embed the videos for you.

It is responsive, fast, lightweight, supports all the browsers, and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fitvids.Js?

There is a jQuery dependency though, if your website is not using jQuery, then you will not be able to use this plugin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fitvids.Js:

It is always better to use libraries to do your work because the developers of the library are really experienced and write a very lightweight code for you. Also, the latest CDNs have all such popular libraries cached. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fitvids.Js solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have embedded videos to the website of the company where I used to intern: https://iotappslab.com/about-us/videos.html Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Fitvids.Js?

It's free and it solves easily a not-so-trivial problem designers have to face when embedding videos from popular sites like YouTube and Vimeo in responsive layouts. Now I just include Fitvids.JS and let it do its magic. Almost everytime I get perfectly sized video embeds in my responsive designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fitvids.Js?

There are some minor issues with some APIs and other plugins (lazysizes etc.) but these can be easily worked aroudn with a bit of inventiveness. The service that Fitvids.JS is providing web designers has great value, and it's also for free so there's nothing really to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fitvids.Js:

If you dabble in responsive web designs and have to embed videos from popular sites such as YouTube and Vimeo (who doesn't?), just let Fitvids.JS work its magic for you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fitvids.Js solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before this script I had to fiddle manually with sizes and do CSS media queries and go by trial and error to correctly embed videos in my responsive designs but now with Fitvids I just include the script and initialise it on the container and it does the heavy lifting.
