Everything you want in a slider block, and nothing you don’t
by Eric Michel·7 months ago
Flexible, well-implemented, performant, the barest of dependencies. If you care about not bogging down your page with massive libraries, this is the one.
Useful and lightweight

Does what it should and the block is good to use
Best slider block plugin
by Ankit Punia·10 months ago
This is fantastic, very low on resources.
Can you please add blocks for previous and next buttons so that we can place them according to our needs?
Again, thank you for this free treat.
Splide, my favorite slider/carousel now in WP
by cucom·1 year ago
I pretty much always use splide in my non-WordPress projects, so great to see it as a block. So far no problems with it, and all the important options are there.
I just wish there was a query-loop block for this, ( I would pay for this )
Keep it up!
