A web component that displays Vimeo embeds faster. Based on Justin Ribeiro's excellent <lite-youtube>, which, in turn, is a Shadow DOM version of Paul's lite-youtube-embed.

This is basically a rebadge of Justin's component, but for Vimeo.

• No dependencies; it's just a vanilla web component.
• It's fast yo.
• It's Shadow Dom encapsulated!
• It's responsive 16:9
• It's accessible via keyboard and will set ARIA via the videotitle attribute
• It's locale ready; you can set the videoplay to have a properly locale based label
• Set the start attribute to start at a particular place in a video
• You can set autoload to use Intersection Observer to load the iframe when scrolled into view.
• Loads placeholder image as WebP with a Jpeg fallback

This web component is built with ES modules in mind and is available on NPM:

Install code-block:

npm i @slightlyoff/lite-vimeo
# or
yarn add @slightlyoff/lite-vimeo

After install, import into your project:

import '@slightlyoff/lite-vimeo';

If you want the paste-and-go version, you can simply load it via CDN:

<script type="module" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@slightlyoff/[email protected]/lite-vimeo.js">

<lite-vimeo videoid="364402896"></lite-vimeo>

<lite-vimeo
  videoid="364402896"
  videotitle="This is a video title"
></lite-vimeo>

<lite-vimeo
  videoid="364402896"
  videoplay="Mirar"
  videotitle="Mis hijos se burlan de mi español"
></lite-vimeo>

Height and Width are responsive in the component.

<style>
  .styleIt {
    width: 400px;
    margin: auto;
  }
</style>
<div class="styleIt">
  <lite-vimeo videoid="364402896"></lite-vimeo>
</div>

<!-- Start at 5 min, 30 seconds -->
<lite-vimeo videoid="364402896" start="5m30s"></lite-vimeo>

Uses Intersection Observer if available to automatically load the Vimeo iframe when scrolled into view.

<lite-vimeo videoid="364402896" autoload></lite-vimeo>

<lite-vimeo videoid="364402896" autoload autoplay></lite-vimeo>

The web component allows certain attributes to be give a little additional flexibility.
