All Figma plugins that allow you to watch videos are lacking in features and or visually unpleasant to look at. I created a modern style with more functionality to help it stand out as the best on the market.

I enjoy watching videos within my files, either for education or entertainment. But all of the plugins currently on Figma felt uninspired so I decided to make one that did more than just show a video.

The top used plugins are outdated, require scrolling, and have a locked screen size. While it gets the job done, I wanted something that felt nice to use with features to make the experience more pleasant.

I wanted it to feel natural so I used Apples 3 button system that would allow users to close the plugin, minimize the plugin to a sliver, and expand it.

It was my first time creating a Figma plugin and also vibe coding. I am pleased with how it came out and I am continuously adding quality of life updates. It was fun to solve a problem that impacts me, it turns out that other people also saw the value in it.
