VideoGrid

<VideoGrid />

The VideoGrid component renders a grid with all participants in the room rendered in one of 3 layouts: PresentationGrid, VideoGrid and Subgrid. The grid behaves like a normal Whereby room, with rules for which participants are rendered in which grid layout at any point in time. To see how the grid logic behaves, please see the grid logic page.
