Often when you visiting media websites, you will want an audio or video player to keep playing even after navigating to another page (like Spotify).

data-turbo-permanent is a Turbo Drive feature that makes it very easy to persist (not refresh) elements when navigating to other pages in an app.

On Superails I use data-turbo-permanent to persist latest search results when navigating around pages.

In this episode we will keep audio and video playing across page navigation.

As a bonus, we will look at opening video picture-in-picture when navigating to another page!
