In this video I take a look at setting up a carousel, sometimes called a slider, for a website. In this one, I'm writing the HTML and CSS, which sets the stage for the JavaScript, which I look at in the next video.
Zell's course: learnjavascript.today
Zell's course changed how I approach JS and made me much more comfortable with it, and with it only open for a limited time I was glad to put this out to give you an idea of just a small fraction of the content you can learn from his course. I know it's expensive, and it's not for everyone, but it's really high quality and contains a TON of content.

I love seeing these types of videos. Such great and detailed information especially for someone that likes to DIY their own websites or just want to actually learn how a carousel works instead of using something like slick or owl. Great base to start from and learn on your own. Overall, great video. Just a few critiques that I have. Maybe you can clarify them for me. 1. You used an additional classes on your .carousel__image class on 12:53. Why not just target them with CSS by saying .carousel__slide img like you did further down on 17:36? 2. On your .carousel__nav class at 20:50, you used display: flex; with justify-content: center;. What would be the difference of making it display:block; margin: 0 auto; ? That way its compatible with all browsers? I get that most every browser supports flex and I normally wouldn't care about it if it weren't for dumb IE. 3. How scalable is this? Meaning how does it look on all devices? I think with a few tweaks it might shine decent on a mobile platform. 4. This one is just more of a comment (haha, get it?), but I like seeing the bem usage here. What really would've made it shine is the use of scss or sass with it. It would've looked so clean.

@nic-nevell6795 3 года назад

love the quick B__E--M lesson thrown in just for good measure! Luckily I write my code quite similar to Kev, but for those that aren't yet down with 'BEM Naming' I would seriously check it out. I think Kevin has vids on it.

Hey Kevin, great work as always! I have a question for you. Why do you use double hyphen for your bem modifiers? Isn't it supposed to be single underscore?

@KevinPowell 5 лет назад

BEM uses double underscore for elements, and double hyphens for modifiers. There might be another naming convention which uses single underscores??

@Limonische 5 лет назад

@@KevinPowell "The modifier name is separated from the block or element name by a single underscore (_)." Just copied that from en.bem.info/methodology/quick-start/. Maybe they changed it at some point?

@KevinPowell 5 лет назад

As far as I know, the official documentation is from getbem.com and the naming specifics are here getbem.com/naming/ Any use of it I've seen in the wild used the double hyphens...

@Limonische 5 лет назад

@@KevinPowell Actually bem.info is the official docs, at least wiki says so. I've found out that a double dash style for modifiers is an alternative naming scheme. I guess it became more popular. The info on it is here en.bem.info/methodology/naming-convention/

Hi Kevin, your tutorials are amazing. The only videos I follow where I actually understand what you’re doing and why! Quick question, how easy would it be to add a swipe left and right motion on the responsive view rather than buttons, for mobiles and tablets? Thanks

So how can i make a carousel for images of different aspect ratios? it's for an art portfolio website.

@space_monkey125 5 лет назад

Hi, Kevin how are you? I wanted to know while making a website responsive using Bootstrap do you slightly change the design for larger and medium devices or keep both xl and md screens same. Or depending on clients requirements you'll decide?

@dimtodim 5 лет назад

The changes for xl md and sm depend on what is happening in the container. You can never even tell your client what to do about it. Only if you make a site for specific resolutions if the client only wants a mobile version that is 375px and a desktop say 1440px, and it does not matter what happens to it ... I personally work to make the site from at least to the highest resolution, as I deal with design I never ask the client anything about it. Some clients will not even use externally libraries so you have to do everything manually, clean html css and vanilla

@hakimdurand8427 Год назад

I have a question I made a carousel but its meant to be the length of the nav bar for example but the issue I am having is...it looks stretched out and loses quality? is this a img sizing issue or a css issue

@GerardoHernandez-hc1wp 5 лет назад

Hey Kevin, I had a quick question. I was able to build a single carousel with no issue, the video provided above was simple to follow, but as I look to build a second and third carousel on the same page, I am running into the issue that the second html, I am adding for the second carousel it completely breaks the functionality of both carousel, is there anyway I can use an ID to call each carousel to avoid breaking the functionality? Thank you very much in advance.

@KevinPowell 5 лет назад

Good question. It'll step up the complexity a little bit. You could give each one a different ID, or you could use a querySelectorAll('.carousel') to select them all in one variable. There might be a more efficient way to do it, but you could wrap all the code I wrote in this in one big function. Then, using an eventListener on each of the carousels, call this function when someone clicks in one. The big difference here would be the "const track" could be changed so that it would grab the track inside the carousel that was clicked only.... hopefully that makes a little bit of sense?

@GerardoHernandez-hc1wp 5 лет назад

@@KevinPowell, that does make sense! The only issue now, is my knowledge in Java, haha, I am not too sure how to write that. Sorry if this is a big ask, still learning javascript. Thank you for your responses, you are a life saver.

The "__" underscores, and the "--" hyphens denote what they refer to as the BEM Standard, (B is for Block, E is for Element, and M is for Modifier) is a naming convention standard for CSS class names. I just prefer using my own standards, but to each their own. I just don't like their "standards".
