This repository contains the demo I've developed as a part of an article written for SitePoint. The project shows how to create a simple JavaScript APIs-powered audio player that employs a few JavaScript APIs to improve the experience for people using a mobile device. In particular, the demo uses:
- The Ambient Light API to change the theme of the web page based on the environment light level
- The Proximity API to play/pause the audio based on the proximity of an object
- The Battery Status API to detect the battery level and automatically pause the audio when the battery is running critical
- The Web Notifications API to notify the user when the battery is running low and that the audio was paused because the battery level was critical
- The Vibration API to provide a tactile feedback that reinforces the notification messages described above
A live demo is available here.
