The Audio tag in HTML5 is a great way to add audio media to web pages. However, the browser fully controls the audio playback interface, which can limit or even break a page’s design if audio media is used.
AmplitudeJS for the J1 Template offers a straightforward solution for web developers. It allows them to easily customize the appearance of their audio players without the need for complex scripting. By leveraging J1 Template and Amplitude’s API, web designers can craft unique interfaces that define the visual and functional aspects of a player’s audio control elements.

The J1 Template implements custom players based on the (default) theme Uno. The color scheme used matches the look and feel of the template to preserve the page design.
Three types of AmplitudeJS players are build-in for the J1 template system:
-
Mini Player
-
Compact Player (default payer)
-
Large Player
Amplitude players for the J1 Template are mobile-friendly. Instead of clicking on the appropriate elements, touch events are applied to all mobile devices. |
Mini Player
In the context of complex components on a web page, like an audio player, a mini player refers to a minimized version of full players. It typically offers basic playback controls, such as pause, play, and volume adjustment, while taking up less screen space.
Mini players are beneficial when you want to listen to audio in the background without dedicating the entire screen to the player. They are commonly found on music streaming services, podcast platforms, and websites with embedded audio content.
