   I took back Video.js after 16 years and we rewrote it to be 88% smaller▲648

   What do you do when private equity buys your old company and fires the maintainers of the popular open source project you started over a decade ago? You reboot it, and bring along some new friends to do it. Video.js is used by billions of people every month, on sites like Amazon.com, Linkedin, and Dropbox, and yet it wasn’t in great shape. A skeleton crew of maintainers were doing their best with a dated architecture, but it needed more. So Sam from Plyr, Rahim from Vidstack, and Wes and Christain from Media Chrome jumped in to help me rebuild it better, faster, and smaller. It’s in beta…

   React-Kino – Cinematic scroll storytelling for React (1KB core)▲19

   I built react-kino because I wanted Apple-style scroll experiences in React without pulling in GSAP (33KB for ScrollTrigger alone). The core scroll engine is under 1KB gzipped. It uses CSS position: sticky with a spacer div for pinning — same technique as ScrollTrigger but with zero dependencies. 12 declarative components: Scene, Reveal, Parallax, Counter, TextReveal, CompareSlider, VideoScroll, HorizontalScroll, Progress, Marquee, StickyHeader. SSR-safe, respects prefers-reduced-motion, works with Next.js App Router. Demo: https://react-kino.dev GitHub:…

    Scroll Buddy▲107

    Hi! Instead of a boring scrollbar I made a scuba dude that swims down the page when you scroll. The idea came from nostalgia; remember SkiFree game on Windows? I wanted a skier skiing down my site. Building the skier mechanics in pure javascript turned out to be difficult so I started with a runner, added a santa hat, and recently built scuba buddy. You can try it directly as soon as you start to scroll down the page, and see the other animations with the "Change Animation" button. Technical details: entirely javascript, takes scroll depth value (window.scrollY) and inputs that into…
