Experimental

Carousels display a series of content slides along a horizontal or vertical axis, one or more at a time. Users can navigate between slides with controls, pagination, or autoplay.

Looping

Link to This Section

By default, the carousel will not advanced beyond the first and last slides. You can change this behavior and force the carousel to "wrap" with the loop attribute.

Autoplay

Link to This Section

The carousel will automatically advance when the autoplay attribute is used. To change how long a slide is shown before advancing, set autoplay-interval to the desired number of milliseconds. For best results, use the loop attribute when autoplay is enabled. Note that autoplay will pause while the user interacts with the carousel.

Mouse Dragging

Link to This Section

The carousel uses scroll snap to position slides at various snap positions. This allows users to scroll through the slides very naturally, especially on touch devices. Unfortunately, desktop users won't be able to click and drag with a mouse, which can feel unnatural. Adding the mouse-dragging attribute can help with this.

This example is best demonstrated using a mouse. Try clicking and dragging the slide to move it. Then toggle the switch and try again.

Enable mouse dragging

Multiple Slides Per View

Link to This Section

The slides-per-page attribute makes it possible to display multiple slides at a time. You can also use the slides-per-move attribute to advance more than once slide at a time, if desired.

                  
  Slide 1
  Slide 2
  Slide 3
  Slide 4
  Slide 5

Vertical Scrolling
