How to use

Execute create-next-app with npm, Yarn, or pnpm to bootstrap this example:

npx create-next-app my-gumlet-app --example "https://github.com/SatyamAnand98/npx-vercel-example"

yarn create next-app my-gumlet-app --example "https://github.com/SatyamAnand98/npx-vercel-example"

pnpm create next-app my-gumlet-app --example "https://github.com/SatyamAnand98/npx-vercel-example"

Configuration

Set up a Gumlet player

Create a Gumlet video/playlist and copy either:

• the direct embed URL, or
• the full iframe snippet from Gumlet.

Set up environment variables

Copy the .env.example file in this directory to .env.local (which will be ignored by Git):

cp .env.example .env.local

Set each variable in .env.local:

• NEXT_PUBLIC_GUMLET_EMBED_URL - Your Gumlet embed URL (or iframe snippet source).

Run Next.js in development mode

npm install
npm run dev
# or
yarn install
yarn dev
# or
pnpm install
pnpm dev

Your app should be up and running on http://localhost:3000.

You will see either:

• You are connected to Gumlet!, or
• You are NOT connected to Gumlet. Check the README for setup.

If the player frame appears but playback area is black, use the Open Gumlet player link below the embed to verify the source URL directly.

You can deploy this app to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).

Deploy Your Local Project
