Svelte Video Player

Basic video player component for svelte, sapper and legacy apps.

Controls are tabbable and respond to key presses (enter/space/arrows) where applicable.

Starting a player will pause previously playing video player instance.

Fullscreen functionality is disabled on iPhone, other than that should function fairly smoothly in both desktop and mobile browsers.
