Buff UP LTD JS/TypeScript Dev. Test
The Task:
Create a JS/TypeScript library using our Rest API to show content of top of an HTML 5 Video Player
Part A: HTML Player
Create a simple HTML page, that hosts a video stream (use this URL: https://buffup-public.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/video/toronto+nba+cut+3.mp4) in any HTML5 video player you want.
Import the npm package for the library that you have created in Part B, to display content on top of that player
Part B: Web Library
We now want a JS/Typescript library distributed as an npm package, that allows to display content (Buff's as we call them) over any existing video player.
The Developer using our library should import our library and initialize it with the ID of the player.
The library then should locate the HTML player frame, and render on top of that HTML content (our Buffs)
Library Requirements
The library should have the following features
- Automatically detect the player frame and put a transparent layer on top of that view that will display our content
- Handle all the business and UI logic to display the Buffs over the video in the view
Buff UI
The Buff UI should look like this:
The UI has 3 sections:
- Top Section that displays the Questions Sender Name and Image
- Middle section where we see the question and the countdown timer
Bottom Section where we see the answers
The countdown timer should work and at the end if the user hasn't yet voted, the question should automatically hide
The number of answers can vary from 2 to 5, your UI should automatically adapt to the number of answers that the API delivers
If the user selects an answer, the timer should stop and you should hide the Buff after 2 seconds. You should also highlight the selected answer.
The UI for this screen with the downloadable assets can be found here:

A sample video of the Buffs showing on the current iOS version can be seen here:
https://github.com/buffup/AndroidTechTest/blob/master/Buff.mov?raw=true
What we are looking for:
- A demo website that hosts the video player and the Javascript/Typescript library
- Demonstration of coding style and design patterns.
- Error handling.
- Any form of unit testing you see fit.
How to Submit your solution:
- Clone this repository
- Create a public repo in github, bitbucket or a suitable alternative and provide a link to the repository.
- Provide a readme in markdown which details your code and any libraries that you may have used
- Explain how we should test the solution
API Usage
This a brief summary of the api endpoints you will need in order to create the library. There a lot of other additional properties from the json responses that are not relevant, but you must use these endpoints to retrieve the information needed for this task.
Base URL
The base URL is http://demo2373134.mockable.io/
Get Buff
Gets the data for the Buff to show
GET /buff/:buffId
Buff Id is the id of the buff to fetch
In the sample Rest API Buffs with Id's 1 to 5 are availableSample response:

}Using the above URL's to fetch the various Buffs, request the Buffs every 30 seconds (from 1 to 5) and display them over the video stream.
The Buff should be displayed with a countdown timer matching the time in the time_to_show field of each Buff.
If the user votes before the end of the timer (taps on an answer), you should freeze the timer and hide the Buff after 2 seconds.
If the timer expires and the user doesn't vote, you should hide the Buff.
If the user manually closes the Buff by tapping on the top right x close button, you should hide the Buff.
Good luck!
