Usage
1.) clone the repo into your webserver directory
2.) put a video named "video.mp4" into the video-folder
3.) open page in your browser on your android based phone or tablet - see the list of supported browsers
4.) connect your rowing machine with the "connect"-button

Supported browsers
Use Google Chrome on Android, Windows 10, Mac (M1 or Intel) and Ubuntu, but not iOS.
The Webapp is running directly in the browser and relies on some of the latest web technologies. Browsers like Firefox and Safari don't have support for them. On iOS Safari is the only allowed browser, and even Chrome for iOS is just Safari with a Chrome skin. Browser support for the web version is the following:
| Chrome | Edge | Opera | Chrome Android | Samsung Internet | Firefox | Safari | Safari iOS | Chrome iOS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| yes | yes | yes | yes | yes | no | no | no | no |
