Which is the best slider/gallery library?
Hi y'all! I'm looking for some advice regarding the best slider framework available. Whenever I need to implement a slider like a image gallery or even a content slider, I search the web regarding available options (like swiperjs.com, glidejs.com, splidejs.com, kenwheeler.github.io/slick/, keen-slider.io) and there are so many available that I'm kinda lost deciding and choosing. So I was wondering, which one is your favorite and why? Or do you even build your own?

Wow cool that sounds motivating. Did you already code a slider yourself for any kind of projects?

yeah that would be interested to see and play arount. To be honest, I'm kinda afraid getting into something which will take forever to run on every major browser and mobile device.
I do create sliders myself once in a while (here an example: https://codepen.io/MarkBoots/pen/xxLvYaR), but personally I still like to use libraries. Why invent the wheel over again. Libraries did already the hard work and when you do it yourself, it's easy to forget accessibly.

yeah thats where I'm not sure as well. There are so many options available and as long as their vanilla js and not very heavy, I always had a good feeling using them. coding and maintaining a slider myself could be very time consuming and not very good billable to customers.
