What is client side media?

Client side media refers to multimedia content, such as images, videos, and audio, that is processed or rendered on the user's device (the client) rather than on a server. In web development, this typically involves using technologies like HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript to display and manage media directly within the user's browser. This approach allows for faster interactions, reduced server load, and enhanced user experiences, as media can be manipulated or played without needing to constantly communicate with a server. Client side media is essential for interactive web applications, online streaming, and responsive design.
