About Picture in Picture

Recently a new feature landed in our web APIs.

Picture in Picture¹²³.

This feature is pretty awesome if you wish to continue and play a specific video while performing other tasks on your computer.

You can click the picture in picture button and a pop up window will appear showing the video over other windows.

You will be able to continue developing with your favorite IDE, write a document with your favorite document processor, toggle between all your open tabs and the video window will stay open in the background constantly.
