magic-roundabout v1.3.2

Magic Roundabout

A tiny JavaScript carousel

Install

npm install magic-roundabout

Usage

First, create the HTML structure for your slider.

<div class="slideshow" id="slideshow">
  <div class="slideshow__slides">
    <div class="slideshow__slide">
      <!-- First slide content -->
    </div>

    <div class="slideshow__slide">
      <!-- Second slide content -->
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Then, create a new instance of magic roundabout.

import MagicRoundabout from 'magic-roundabout'

const magicRoundabout = new MagicRoundabout('#slideshow')

Magic Roundabout does not include any CSS, making it easy to style as you see fit. The following should be enough to get you started

#your-selector {
  overflow: hidden;
}
  #your-selector .slideshow__slides {
    align-items: stretch;
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: nowrap;
    transition: transform .3s;
    width: 100%;
  }
  #your-selector .slideshow__slide {
    flex: 0 0 100%;
  }

If you want to add navigation buttons, just add them into the main .slideshow element.

<div class="slideshow" id="slideshow">
  <div class="slideshow__slides">
    <div class="slideshow__slide">
      <!-- First slide content -->
    </div>

    <div class="slideshow__slide">
      <!-- Second slide content -->
    </div>
  </div>

  <a href="javascript:void('')" class="slideshow__button slideshow__button--prev">Previous</a>
  <a href="javascript:void('')" class="slideshow__button slideshow__button--next">Next</a>
</div>
