Styled Image Slider

Styled Image Slider is a simple js/ts react component. Developed with typescript and styled with styled-components.

---

Parameters

It takes 2 parameters / props:

interface SliderProps {
  images: string[];
  timerOptions?: number;
}

images

An array of string url values that point to each image. In react you normally want to import the images to maintain the relative url after building. Then, just pass them in an array.

timerOptions

The time (in milliseconds) for each interval between slides. It always slides forwards, looping back to the start after it reaches the end.

After user interaction (meaning manually selecting a slide or sliding forwards or backwards), the timer is reset.

If left out, default timer is 6500ms or 6.5 seconds

Placement

The Slider component has to be placed inside a parent component that will give it shape. There is no other way to adjust height or width of the slider.
