Meditation app tutorial
A tutorial project for a simple meditation app with ambient sounds and video backgrounds. This is a YouTube tutorial companion repo, not a standalone product — it exists to teach vanilla JS/CSS animation basics, not to be a real meditation tool.
- Minimal footprint: single HTML file, one JS file, one CSS file — zero build tooling, zero dependencies, opens in a browser immediately
- Good teaching surface for beginners: covers CSS animations, DOM manipulation, and audio/video handling in one contained project
- 222 forks relative to 263 stars suggests people are actually cloning and building on it, not just starring and forgetting
- No actual project here — the README is literally two words and the repo is a tutorial artifact, not something you'd use or extend
- Dead since September 2023 with no issues, PRs, or roadmap — expected for a tutorial repo but means there's zero community or maintenance
- Sounds and video assets are committed directly to the repo, which is the wrong pattern to teach beginners who'll later wonder why their repos are 200MB
- JavaScript is unstructured vanilla script tag code — fine for the tutorial context but a bad mental model to carry forward
