# carousel output preview
## PART A: Task fit
- Use case: When the user wants to design, optimize, or audit carousel/slider layouts for content display. Also use when the user mentions "carousel," "slider," "carousel layout," "testimonial carousel," "gallery carousel," "quote carousel," "image slider," or "carousel accessibility." For hero-area patterns, use hero-generator..
- Inputs: target material, constraints, expected output, and acceptance criteria.
- Evidence boundary: follow “When to Use Carousel / Carousel vs Grid vs List vs Masonry / Best Practices” and do not present inference as author intent.
## PART B: Execution result
- **01** The card summarizes the use case; runtime output centers on “When the user wants to design, optimize, or audit carousel/slider layouts for content display. Also use when the user mentions "carousel," "slider," "carousel layout," "testimonial carousel," "gallery carousel," "quote carousel," "image slider," or "carousel accessibility." For hero-area patterns, use hero-generator.”.
- **02** When the source has headings, the agent prioritizes “When to Use Carousel / Carousel vs Grid vs List vs Masonry / Best Practices” so the result follows the author’s structure.
- **03** Typical output includes task judgment, concrete steps, required commands or file edits, validation, and follow-up options.
- **04** Risk context follows the fingerprint: read files, write/modify files; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
## Running Rules
- read files, write/modify files; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding scope.
- Return the result, validation criteria, and next iteration options. The source does not require a stable slash command. After installation, invoke the skill by name and describe the task.
Name target files or source material, expected output, forbidden changes, and whether network or shell access is allowed. Permission fingerprint: read files, write/modify files.
Start with a small task and check whether the result follows “When to Use Carousel / Carousel vs Grid vs List vs Masonry / Best Practices”. Inspect diffs, logs, previews, or tests before expanding scope.
Confirm the final output includes a concrete result, evidence, and next action. If it stays generic, tighten inputs, boundaries, and acceptance criteria.

# carousel
## When to use
- When the user wants to design, optimize, or audit carousel/slider layouts for content display. Also use when the user…
- Use it when the task has clear inputs, repeatable steps, and validation criteria.
## What to provide
- Target material, scope, expected result, and forbidden changes.
- Whether network, commands, file writes, or external services are allowed.
## Execution rules
- Organize steps around “When to Use Carousel / Carousel vs Grid vs List vs Masonry / Best Practices” and keep inference separate from source facts.
- read files, write/modify files; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding the task.
## Output requirements
- Return the deliverable, key evidence, validation method, and next action.
- Mark missing information as unknown; do not invent commands, platforms, or dependencies. The author source anchors workflow facts; repository files anchor sources and commands; Fluxly only adds fit, limitations, and quality judgment.
skill "carousel" {
input -> user goal + target files + boundaries + acceptance criteria
context -> When to Use Carousel / Carousel vs Grid vs List vs Masonry / Best Practices
rules -> SKILL.md triggers / order / output contract
runtime -> no special runtime | read files, write/modify files | mostly runs locally

output -> copyable result + checklist + next iteration
} Components: Carousel Layout
Guides carousel (slider) layout design for sequential content display. Carousels show one or few items at a time; users swipe or click to advance. Best when space is limited and multiple items need rotation—testimonials, quotes, logos, gallery highlights.
When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
When to Use Carousel
| Use carousel when | Use grid/list when |
|---|---|
| Limited space | Full catalog visible |
| One focus at a time; rotation desired | Browse, compare many items |
| Testimonials, quotes, logos, featured gallery | Products, templates, blog index |
| Above fold; hero or section highlight | Full listing; discovery |
See grid for equal-hierarchy display; list for text-heavy scan; masonry for varying-height gallery.
Carousel vs Grid vs List vs Masonry
| Layout | Structure | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Grid | Equal rows and columns; all visible | Products, templates, features |
| List | Single column; stacked | Blog index, docs, search results |
| Masonry | Columns; varying heights | Pinterest-style gallery |
| Carousel | Slides; one/few visible; swipe/click | Testimonials, logos, featured items |
Best Practices
Accessibility
- Keyboard navigation: Arrow keys to move; Enter/Space to activate; focus visible
- User control: Don't auto-advance too fast; allow pause; avoid auto-advance if
prefers-reduced-motionis set - Announcements: Screen reader users need to know current slide and total (e.g., "Slide 2 of 5")
- Touch targets: ≥44×44px for prev/next buttons on mobile
Performance
- Lazy load: Load off-screen slides on demand; avoid loading all images upfront
- Reserve space: Reserve space for slides to avoid layout shift (CLS)
SEO
- Content in DOM: All carousel content must be in the initial HTML at page load. Google does not simulate clicks; content loaded via AJAX on slide change is not discoverable. Same as tab-accordion.
- Recommendation: Server-render all slides in HTML; use CSS/JS only to show/hide. See rendering-strategies.
Use Cases
| Use case | Format | Page Skill |
|---|---|---|
| Testimonials | Quote carousel; multiple testimonials | testimonials-generator |
| Showcase / Gallery | Featured items; rotation | showcase-page-generator |
| Press logos | "As Seen In" logo strip or quote carousel | press-coverage-page-generator |
| Community | Banner carousel below hero | community-forum |
