Are there live demos that could be embedded instead of (or in addition to) the animated gifs?

Here's a live demo from our examples: https://docs.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/example/projections/

We decided to go with live videos to demonstrate the concepts in motion, and because embedding WebGL vector maps on an already big page might slow it down quite a bit, but definitely something to consider more in the future.

Maybe just put a little click to start over it, thus indicating it's resource intensive. Not to give users flashbacks or anything, but as long as it isn't too big and/or was already downloaded, people should be happy.
