Media can come in different formats and many different ways of displaying it. There are far too many to cover here but we can start with some basic examples.

Inline Widgets

Clients can surface interoperable content such as streams, chats and communities. These can be a great way to promote discovery within nostr. In the example below, we see a stream widget that can notify people automatically when a stream is planned, live or ended.

Inline Media

Clients can implement various kinds to surface media from other clients that are geared specifically for that use.

Galleries

Masonry style galleries are a great way to display media and a quick way to find something interesting.
