Why embedding?
In order to change easily the look of the devices allover the website in just a few clicks. And avoid having a huge workload for production team whenever we want to update from a device to a newer one, we developped a 2 layer solution. The content is placed underneath the device who’s acting as a frame for the content that lies beneath it.
