import VideoPlayer from "@slogvo/react-universal-video";

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div>
      // HTML5
      <VideoPlayer
        url="https://videos.pexels.com/video-files/5013307/5013307-hd_1920_1080_30fps.mp4"
        width="800"
        height="450"
      />
      // Yotube
      <VideoPlayer
        url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA91tf1Udr0"
        width="800"
