media-fullscreen-button

Accessible fullscreen toggle button with keyboard support and state reflection

Anatomy

<media-fullscreen-button></media-fullscreen-button>

Behavior

Toggles fullscreen mode. Detects platform support through availability — when fullscreen is "unsupported", the toggle does nothing.

Styling

You can style the button based on fullscreen state:

/* In fullscreen */
media-fullscreen-button[data-fullscreen] {
  background: red;
}

Consider hiding the button when unsupported:

media-fullscreen-button[data-availability="unsupported"] {
  display: none;
}

Accessibility

Renders a <button> with an automatic aria-label: “Enter fullscreen” or “Exit fullscreen”. Override with the label prop. Keyboard activation: Enter / Space.
