Best slider on wordpress
by highvoltage90·1 year ago·2 replies

I spent a lot of time finding a free slider with advanced cards layouts.

This solves all my issues, and great that integrates a well known api like swiper js

Thank you

Very Polished and easy to use

Super high quality and clean, very easy to use, great and clear explanations of how to use it. Super powerful for DEVs and usable for average WP user. Best slider plugin I found after trying many, this is how block plugins should be built!

Very good, very (c)lean!

Simple setup, open source, clean, most modern and light carousel slider for wp, based on the very good swiper library. Also developer friendly. Good job
