Mozilla's HTML5 media framework


About this project

Popcorn.js is an event framework for HTML5 media. Popcorn.js utilizes the native HTMLMediaElement properties, methods and events, normalizes them into an easy to learn API, and provides a plugin system for community contributed interactions.

Get involved now

Popcorn is an active project with many contributors, and enjoys wide usage. Help us make it better!

  • Build things using Popcorn.js. We've already seen some amazing early adopters grab popcorn and create rich media experiences on the web. We have some of them listed here: http://popcornjs.org/demos, and we need more. Every time someone builds something cool with popcorn, new people find out about it, ideas for new plugins/features are generated, and popcorn spreads.
  • Blog and tweet about it.
  • Get involved with our effort to write end-user documentation, HOWTOs, tutorials, etc.
  • Write plugins. Every time someone makes popcorn do something new via a plugin, we learn more about the APIs and edge cases in the core.
  • Help us test! Every time we do a release, we spend days testing on various platforms, browsers, and devices. We could use your help, and the dates above give you a sense of when this will happen. Join irc.mozilla.org/popcorn, or send me a mail if you want to be part of the testing team.

We use Lighthouse for bug tracking. Sign up for an account to file a bug, or even better, fix one!

We have an active developer community on IRC at irc.mozilla.org/popcorn. Come say hello!

The current popcornjs code is available on Github.

We also have a [ https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/community-popcorn mailing list], which currently hosts all discussion around Popcorn.
