TIDE - a coastal Video.js v10 skin that turns the timeline into a little sea. Drag the sail to seek, follow the coral line for progress, and jump between chapters using the buoys. The shoreline sits below the video, keeping the film clear, with light and dark themes and a separate phone layout.

Made for the Video.js Skins Design Challenge on @Contra, sponsored by @Mux.

Behind the scenes of shipping a client web app: the launch-day cut list is where the real product gets decided. This week we shipped with three features deliberately left out, not because they were hard, but because nobody on the client's team could explain who would use them or when. Every feature you ship is a promise to maintain it, support it and explain it to the next new hire. The apps clients keep paying for are not the ones with the longest feature list, they are the ones where every single thing on screen earns its place. Ship less, on purpose, then add only what real users ask for twice.

Ship less on purpose, love that. Half the features I've built got clicked once, by me, while testing 😅
