Swipe is a lightweight vanilla JavaScript touch slider library for creating swipeable carousels and slideshows in the browser. It supports touch gestures, CSS transitions, auto-play, and continuous looping with a simple markup pattern.
Use cases
- add a touch-friendly image carousel to a mobile web page
- build an auto-playing slideshow with prev/next controls
- create a swipeable product gallery on a responsive site
- implement infinite looping slide navigation with callbacks
- replace heavier carousel libraries with a minimal vanilla JS slider
When to choose
- you need a tiny dependency-free touch slider for plain HTML/CSS/JS
- you want broad browser support including older browsers
- you need simple programmatic control via prev/next/slide APIs
When to avoid
- you need a React/Vue component with framework integration
- you require advanced features like lazy loading, parallax, or accessibility out of the box
- you need actively maintained software with recent releases
