}

        carousel.scrollLeft += icon.id == "left" ? -firstImgWidth : firstImgWidth;
        setTimeout(() => showHideIcons(), 60); // calling showHideIcons after 60ms
    });
});

const autoSlide = () => {
    // if there is no image left to scroll then return from here
    if(carousel.scrollLeft - (carousel.scrollWidth - carousel.clientWidth) > -1 || carousel.scrollLeft <= 0) return;

    positionDiff = Math.abs(positionDiff); // making positionDiff value to positive
    let firstImgWidth = firstImg.clientWidth + 14;
    // getting difference value that needs to add or reduce from carousel left to take middle img center
    let valDifference = firstImgWidth - positionDiff;

    if(carousel.scrollLeft > prevScrollLeft) { // if user is scrolling to the right
        return carousel.scrollLeft += positionDiff > firstImgWidth / 3 ? valDifference : -positionDiff;
    }
    // if user is scrolling to the left
    carousel.scrollLeft -= positionDiff > firstImgWidth / 3 ? valDifference : -positionDiff;
}

const dragStart = (e) => {
    // updatating global variables value on mouse down event
    isDragStart = true;
    prevPageX = e.pageX || e.touches[0].pageX;
    prevScrollLeft = carousel.scrollLeft;
}

const dragging = (e) => {

}

const dragStop = () => {
    isDragStart = false;

Today I have brought something exciting and useful HTML CSS & JavaScript project, In this project, you are going to learn to create a Website Image Slider. Earlier I created a Responsive Card Slider hope, you liked that project.

Website Image Slider means the features on the website header or hero section where the user can slide images by clicking on the nav button or as well as by grabbing the image too. Also, there is pagination that shows how many images that website has on the harder section. We can see such type of features in many types of websites like e-commerce, sports, newspaper, travel/tour, and many many others.

Have a quick look at the given image of our project [Website Image Slider]. As you can see on the given image there is an image that covered full height and width, on the right and left sides there are two nav buttons to slide the image and at the button, we can see a beautiful pagination section. At the center, there are some text and a button.

To watch the real demo of this project and all the animations that I have added to this project, you can watch the given video tutorial of this project [Website Image Slider], also by watching the video tutorial you will get an idea about all the code that I have used to create this image slider.

I have provided all the HTML CSS & JavaScript code with the Swiperjs file that I used to create this Website Image Slider, before getting into the source code, I would like to briefly explain the given video tutorial of the image slider.

As you have seen in the video tutorial of our project Image Slider. In the first view, we have seen a full-size screen, two nav buttons, pagination, and some text with buttons. When I click on the left side button the image moves to the left side and another image appeared from the right side, similarly when I again clicked on that button another image appeared. On the other hand, when I clicked on the left nav button the image slid to the right and another image came from the left side. Also, we could slide images by grabbing them.

Also, we have seen in the responsive part, that when the width of the screen comes into small sizes like tablet and mobile, then those nav buttons disappeared and pagination appeared and we can slide those images by just grabbing them. I have used HTML CSS and JavaScript and swiperjs extension to create this responsive image slider.

Responsive Card Slider in HTML CSS & JavaScript

CodingNepal — Tue, 31 May 2022 21:11:19 +0000

Hello buddy, I hope you are doing great. Today in this blog, you will learn to create a Responsive Card Slider in HTML CSS & JavaScript with SwiperJs. The card slider will have pagination, navigation buttons, and grab-to-slide. Earlier I created Sliding Card but it was suitable for only large-sized screens. But today’s project will be fully responsive with some advanced features.

A card slider means the combination of cards aligned horizontally and has a feature to slide to watch the hidden cards. The card can contain any content. Like profile cards, e-commerce product cards, blogs card, and others.

Look at the given image of our product [Responsive Card Slider] on the screen. As you can see in the preview, we can see three cards with some images, text content, and buttons. On the right and left sides we can see two navigation buttons and at the center, we can see pagination.

Actually, there are a total of nine cards but expect three are in hidden condition. To see the other card we need to click on any nav button or we can grab a card and slide it. The pagination also functions and we can also click on them to bring the next card.

I have provided a video tutorial below for the virtual experience of this project [Responsive Card Slider]. By watching the video tutorial, you can see the real demo of this project and obviously get the idea of how all HTML CSS, and JavaScript code work behind this project.

Responsive Card Slider in HTML CSS & JavaScript | Video Tutorial

I have provided all the HTML CSS and JavaScript code with the swiper js file that I have used to create this responsive card slider. Before getting into the source code file you need to familiarize yourself a little bit with the video tutorial on the card slider.

As you have seen in the video tutorial. At first, we have seen three cards with a navigation button and pagination. When I clicked on the left nav button the card slid left side and a hidden card appeared. When I clicked on the left navigation button, the cards slid right side. The pagination also showed us the active card with its indicator. To create all the UI designs of the card, I used HTML and CSS, and to make card slides I used the swiper js plugin.

I hope now you can build this card slider by using HTML CSS and JavaScript with the Swiper Js plugin. If you are feeling difficulty building this card slider, I have provided all the source codes below.
