+## **Q: What is video.js?**
+video.js is an extendable wrapper around the native video element. It does the following:
+  * Offers a plugin API so that different types of video can be handed to the native
+    video element. IE:  HLS, Flash, or HTML5 video.

+  * if necessary)

+  * Takes care of accessibility for the user (in-progress)
