Looping

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

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

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.

Multiple Slides Per View

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 Slide 6
<wa-carousel navigation pagination slides-per-page="2" slides-per-move="2">

Adding and Removing Slides

The content of the carousel can be changed by adding or removing carousel items. The carousel will update itself automatically.

    const dynamicRemove = document.querySelector('#dynamic-remove');
    const colors = ['red', 'orange', 'yellow', 'green', 'blue', 'purple'];
    let colorIndex = 2;

    const addSlide = () => {
      const slide = document.createElement('wa-carousel-item');
      const color = colors[++colorIndex % colors.length];
      slide.innerText = `Slide ${dynamicCarousel.children.length + 1}`;
      slide.style.setProperty('background', color);
      dynamicCarousel.appendChild(slide);
      dynamicRemove.disabled = false;
    };

    const removeSlide = () => {
      const slide = dynamicCarousel.children[dynamicCarousel.children.length - 1];
      const numSlides = dynamicCarousel.querySelectorAll('wa-carousel-item').length;

      if (numSlides > 1) {
        slide.remove();
        colorIndex--;
      }

      dynamicRemove.disabled = numSlides - 1 <= 1;
    };

    dynamicAdd.addEventListener('click', addSlide);
    dynamicRemove.addEventListener('click', removeSlide);
  })();
</script>

Vertical Scrolling

Setting the orientation attribute to vertical will render the carousel in a vertical layout. If the content of your slides vary in height, you will need to set amn explicit height or max-height on the carousel using CSS.

Scroll Hint

Use the --scroll-hint custom property to add inline padding in horizontal carousels and block padding in vertical carousels. This will make the closest slides slightly visible, hinting that there are more items in the carousel.

The carousel has a robust API that makes it possible to extend and customize. This example syncs the active slide with a set of thumbnails, effectively creating a gallery-style carousel.
