How to create a slider with splidejs| Sabbirz

Slider is one of the most important components of a website, creating a slider is rather easy in sveltekit

Install npm package
terminal
```
npm i @splidejs/svelte-splide
```
Let’s create a component named slider inside the lib folder

We must import the content of the package splidejs

slider.svelte

import { Splide, SplideSlide } from "@splidejs/svelte-splide";
import "@splidejs/splide/dist/css/themes/splide-default.min.css";

Now create several variables for both desktop and mobile & also export those variables too, This allows us to set those slider images from any page.
slider.svelte
```
export let Slide1 = "/sliderhome/desk_slider_A.jpg";
export let Slide1a = "/sliderhome/mob_slider_A.jpg";
export let Slide2 = "/sliderhome/desk_slider_B.jpg";
export let Slide2a = "/sliderhome/mob_slider_B.jpg";
```
/sliderhome/desk_slider_A.jpg means, I have placed the images inside static/sliderhome folder
With the script part of the slider complete, we must now focus on the markup section.

Let’s examine the basic structure of a Splide slider

slider.svelte

<Splide options={{"slider configuration"}} aria-label="sliderName">
    <SplideSlide>
        <div>
            <!-- Placeholder of slider-->
        </div>
    </SplideSlide>
</Splide>

Based on this basic structure, here is my actual code

slider.svelte

<Splide
  options={{
    type: "fade",
    heightRatio: 0.5,
    pagination: false,
    isNavigation: true,
    arrows: true,
    cover: true,
  }}
  aria-label="sliderName"
>
  <SplideSlide>
    <img src={Slide1} alt="image_alt" />
  </SplideSlide>
  <SplideSlide>
    <img src={Slide2} alt="image_alt" />
  </SplideSlide>
  <SplideSlide>
    <img src={Slide3} alt="image_alt" />
  </SplideSlide>
  <SplideSlide>
    <img src={Slide4} alt="image_alt" />
  </SplideSlide>
</Splide>

Our slider component is ready.
