For platforms without direct use of `npm` modules, a minified version of `ReactPlayer` is located in `dist` after installing. To generate this file yourself, checkout the repo and run `npm run build:dist`.

#### Polyfills

* If you are using `npm` and need to support [browsers without `Promise`](http://caniuse.com/#feat=promises) you will need a [`Promise` polyfill](https://github.com/stefanpenner/es6-promise).
* To support IE11 you will need to use [`babel-polyfill`](https://babeljs.io/docs/usage/polyfill) or a similar ES2015+ polyfill.

#### Autoplay

As of Chrome 66, [videos must be `muted` in order to play automatically](https://www.theverge.com/2018/3/22/17150870/google-chrome-autoplay-videos-sound-mute-update). Some players, like Facebook, cannot be unmuted until the user interacts with the video, so you may want to enable `controls` to allow users to unmute videos themselves. Please set `muted={true}`.
