Carousel Primitive

Carousel is a Starwind Runtime primitive in the viewport-measurement contract family.

Anatomy

Use the Astro primitive adapter to render Carousel anatomy with the Runtime wiring included.

---
import { Carousel } from "@starwind-ui/astro/carousel";
---

<Carousel.Root>
  <Carousel.Viewport>
    <Carousel.Container>
      <Carousel.Item>Slide 1</Carousel.Item>
    </Carousel.Container>
  </Carousel.Viewport>
  <Carousel.Previous>Previous</Carousel.Previous>
  <Carousel.Next>Next</Carousel.Next>
</Carousel.Root>

Use the React primitive adapter when Carousel state participates in React rendering.

import { Carousel } from "@starwind-ui/react/carousel";

export function Example() {
  return (
    <Carousel.Root>
      <Carousel.Viewport>
        <Carousel.Container>
          <Carousel.Item>Slide 1</Carousel.Item>
        </Carousel.Container>
      </Carousel.Viewport>
      <Carousel.Previous>Previous</Carousel.Previous>
      <Carousel.Next>Next</Carousel.Next>
    </Carousel.Root>
  );
}

Render the Carousel data-sw-* contract yourself, then initialize createCarousel.

<div data-sw-carousel role="region" aria-roledescription="carousel">
  <div data-sw-carousel-viewport>
    <div data-sw-carousel-container>
      <div data-sw-carousel-item role="group" aria-roledescription="slide">Slide 1</div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <button data-sw-carousel-previous type="button">Previous</button>
  <button data-sw-carousel-next type="button">Next</button>
</div>

<script type="module">
  import { createCarousel } from "@starwind-ui/runtime/carousel";

  const root = document.querySelector("[data-sw-carousel]");
  if (root) {
    createCarousel(root);
  }
</script>
