| 28 | + |
| 29 | +### Basic Implementation |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +```jsx |
| 32 | +import React from 'react'; |
| 33 | +import { GumletPlayer } from '@gumlet/react-embed-player'; |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +function VideoPlayer() { |
| 36 | + return ( |
| 37 | + <GumletPlayer |
| 38 | + videoID="64bfb0913ed6e5096d66dc1e" |
| 39 | + title="My Video Title" |
| 40 | + style={{ |
| 41 | + height: "500px", |
| 42 | + width: "100%", |
| 43 | + position: "relative" |
| 44 | + }} |
| 45 | + autoplay={false} |
| 46 | + preload={true} |
| 47 | + muted={false} |
| 48 | + /> |
| 49 | + ); |
| 50 | +} |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +export default VideoPlayer; |
| 53 | +``` |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +### Advanced Implementation with SSR |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +```jsx |
| 58 | +import React, { useRef, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; |

| 63 | + const [isClient, setIsClient] = useState(false); |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + useEffect(() => { |
| 66 | + setIsClient(true); |
| 67 | + }, []); |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + const handlePlay = () => { |
| 70 | + if (playerRef.current) { |
| 71 | + playerRef.current.play(); |
| 72 | + } |
| 73 | + }; |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | + const handlePause = () => { |
| 76 | + if (playerRef.current) { |
| 77 | + playerRef.current.pause(); |
