🪛Web Application Integration

Bring support for the Looking Glass display to your web app

The best way to integrate with the Bridge Media Player using a web app is to use the Bridge.js library. This is the same library that we use for Looking Glass Blocks. The Bridge.js library exposes typesafe objects and methods for interacting with the Bridge REST API. See the Bridge.js README file for detailed information on how to use Bridge.js in your web application.
