How to track user interaction with a video using JS?

I have a video on a website that I have set up using the <video> tag. I have enabled controls on the video and was hoping to find a way to track user interactions with the video, for example using the controls or skipping portions of the video. I know there are options in google analytics that allow you to track this but due to certain limitations that option can't be used. I was hoping if there is a way using only JS to do this?

There are several different events such as seek and seeking and volumechange as per the Mozilla docs. You'll have to be more specific for your use case, but this seems to be enough for what you're looking for: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/video#Events
