Carousel(Slider)
Hello Guys! Welcome to Coding Torque. In this blog, I'm going to explain to you how to make a Simple Carousel(Slider) using HTML CSS, and JavaScript. You must create this project if you are a beginner or intermediate-level programmer. Let's get started 🚀.

Let's go step by step:
Step 1: HTML Code
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">

<body>
<div class="slideshow-container">
<div class="mySlides fade">
<div class="numbertext">1 / 3</div>
<img src="../imgs/sea.jpg" style="width:100%">
<div class="text">River View</div>
</div>
<div class="mySlides fade">
<div class="numbertext">2 / 3</div>
<img src="../imgs/work.jpg" style="width:100%">
<div class="text">Work</div>
</div>
<div class="mySlides fade">
<div class="numbertext">3 / 3</div>
<img src="../imgs/desk.jpg" style="width:100%">
<div class="text">Productivity</div>
</div>
<a class="prev" onclick="plusSlides(-1)">❮</a>
<a class="next" onclick="plusSlides(1)">❯</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Step 2: CSS Code
* {
box-sizing: border-box
}
body {
font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
margin: 0
}
.mySlides {
display: none
}
img {
vertical-align: middle;
}
/* Slideshow container */
.slideshow-container {
max-width: 1000px;
position: relative;
margin: auto;
}
/* Next & previous buttons */
.prev,
.next {
cursor: pointer;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
width: auto;
padding: 16px;
margin-top: -22px;
color: white;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 18px;
transition: 0.6s ease;
border-radius: 0 3px 3px 0;
user-select: none;
}
/* Position the "next button" to the right */
.next {
right: 0;
border-radius: 3px 0 0 3px;
}
/* On hover, add a black background color with a little bit see-through */
.prev:hover,
.next:hover {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
}
/* Caption text */
.text {
color: #f2f2f2;
font-size: 15px;
padding: 8px 12px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 8px;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
/* Number text (1/3 etc) */
.numbertext {
color: #f2f2f2;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 8px 12px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
}
/* The dots/bullets/indicators */
.dot {
cursor: pointer;
height: 15px;
width: 15px;
margin: 0 2px;
background-color: #bbb;
border-radius: 50%;
display: inline-block;
transition: background-color 0.6s ease;
}
.active,
.dot:hover {
background-color: #717171;
}
/* Fading animation */
.fade {
animation-name: fade;
animation-duration: 1.5s;
}
@keyframes fade {
from {
opacity: .4
}
to {
opacity: 1
}
}
/* On smaller screens, decrease text size */
@media only screen and (max-width: 300px) {
.prev,
.next,
.text {
font-size: 11px
}
}
Step 3: JavaScript Code
let slideIndex = 1;
showSlides(slideIndex);
function plusSlides(n) {
showSlides(slideIndex += n);
}
function currentSlide(n) {
showSlides(slideIndex = n);
}
function showSlides(n) {
let i;
let slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides");
let dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot");
if (n > slides.length) { slideIndex = 1 }
if (n < 1) { slideIndex = slides.length }
for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
slides[i].style.display = "none";
}
for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", "");
}
slides[slideIndex - 1].style.display = "block";
dots[slideIndex - 1].className += " active";
}
