Live Photos for Developers - Embed Apple Live Photos directly into your website

I guess Apple really wants people to use Live Photos.

Wow, that is a complicated implementation. For the user - such a small play button, but also for the devver. More JavaScript 🤔 Just make it an animated gif (with Google Motion Stills e.g.) and you are done.

Also, I tried to implement it on my site, hipsterpixel.co, and sadly it beach balled Safari and crashed the Chrome tab... Maybe not fully ready? I'll open a Radar.

Activating them is kind of confusing, especially if the photo itself doesn't have an easily distinguishable flow. I'd rather have it be on every roll over or a press on the photo than just rolling over the live button(?).

Thank's Apple for opening the SDK and the ability to embed LIVE photos on the website. Very flashbacks.

I want all College websites to go full Harry Potter with moving images.

Developers. Developers. Developers!
