Creating an AEM HTML Template Language movie component

You can develop a custom Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) HTL (formally Sightly) Movie component that lets your web site visitors engage with your site by performing these tasks:

  • view videos
  • view images
  • provide feedback about the movie
  • rate the movie
  • learn about information

You can develop the AEM Movie component by using HTL and digital assets, such as videos and images. Although this component is based on a movie use case, the AEM development concepts discussed in this development article can be directly applied to other AEM components that use AEM digital assets.

The following video shows the Movie component displaying video content.
