## Beschreibung

Poppable is a lightweight Gutenberg block that lets you display YouTube videos in
a sleek modal popup. Simply add the block, paste your YouTube URL, and connect it
to any trigger element on your page.

**Key Features:**

 * **Trigger from Any Element** – Assign a trigger ID to any element (button, image,
   text) and clicking it opens the video modal
 * **Multiple YouTube URL Formats** – Supports youtube.com/watch?v=, youtu.be/, 
   and youtube.com/embed/ formats
 * **Autoplay Support** – Optionally start playing the video automatically when 
   the modal opens
 * **Customizable Modal Width** – Set the content width using px, %, vw, or any 
   CSS unit
 * **Multiple Close Options:**
    - Close button (X) in the corner
    - Click outside to close
    - Press ESC key to close
 * **Responsive Design** – Videos maintain 16:9 aspect ratio on all screen sizes
 * **Body Scroll Lock** – Page scrolling is disabled when the modal is open for 
   a focused viewing experience
 * **Lightweight** – No jQuery dependencies, built with vanilla JavaScript

**Development & Source Code:**
 Poppable is open-source and developed publicly on
GitHub.
