To automatically play the video on page load:

  var Vimeo = require('react-vimeo');

  React.render(
    <Vimeo videoId={ videoId } autoplay={true} />,
    $mountNode
  );

Behind the Scenes

There are some things that you should know about the component. The first one is the structure created inside by the component if you wish to stylize it.

So, the semantic HTML structure will be something like this:

  <div class='vimeo'>
    <div class='vimeo-loading'>
      <svg>...</svg>
    </div>
    <div class='vimeo-image'>
      <button type='button' class='vimeo-play-button'>
        <svg>...</svg>
      </button>
    </div>
    <div class='video-embed'>
      <iframe>...</iframe>
    </div>
  </div>
