Overview

YouTube-style viewer: HLS adaptive playback, custom controls, chapter nav, thumbnail scrubbing, watch history, playlists, threaded comments, recommendations.

What you're reading is the same plans/video-platform.md spec used to build VideoPlatform. It lists what's in the source, what isn't, the audit results, and the architecture. Read it before you subscribe — there are no surprises on the other side of payment.

Full spec is being authored — the rich detail page (features, audit numbers, changelog, recipes, architecture) lands when this starter ships.

Stack

The shared baseline across every starter in the catalog.

  • typescript — strict mode, no any, no ! non-null in shipping code
  • @tanstack/react-router + @tanstack/react-query for routing and server state
  • tailwindcss with Radix primitives for unstyled, accessibility-first components
  • msw for the mock API layer — designed to be replaced with your real backend
  • vitest for unit/component, @playwright/test for E2E

Per-starter additions for VideoPlatform:

  • hls.js
  • dnd-kit
