Usage

Here's an example in Svelte:

<script>
  import { VideoMirror } from "video-mirror";
</script>

<main>
  <VideoMirror on:done={({ detail }) => {
    const { stream, devices} = detail;
    console.log('setup complete!', stream, devices);
  } />
</main>

Consuming Svelte Components

Your package.json has a "svelte" field pointing to src/index.js, which allows Svelte apps to import the source code directly, if they are using a bundler plugin like rollup-plugin-svelte or svelte-loader (where resolve.mainFields in your webpack config includes "svelte"). This is recommended.

For everyone else, npm run build will bundle your component's source code into a plain JavaScript module (dist/index.mjs) and a UMD script (dist/index.js). This will happen automatically when you publish your component to npm, courtesy of the prepublishOnly hook in package.json.
