Installation

npx kinetic-ui-cli@latest add coverflow-slider

Usage

This component utilizes CSS 3D transforms (perspective and transform-style: preserve-3d) alongside Framer Motion's robust spring animations to create a fluid, depth-of-field carousel.

import { CoverflowSlider } from "@/components/creative/coverflow-slider";

const images = ["/image1.jpg", "/image2.jpg"];

export default function MyComponent() {
  return <CoverflowSlider images={images} />;
}

Usage Guide

1. Import the Component

Import the component into your React or Next.js page:

import { CoverflowSlider } from "@/components/creative/coverflow-slider";

2. Implementation Example

Render the component and customize its behavior by passing props:

import { CoverflowSlider } from "@/components/creative/coverflow-slider";

export default function Example() {
  return (
    <div className="w-full flex items-center justify-center p-8">
      <CoverflowSlider
        images="example"
      />
    </div>
  );
}
Performance Notes
  • Uses CSS hardware acceleration via GPU transform-binds.
  • Damped interpolation minimizes paint-redraw flashes.
  • Tree-shakable import: only compiles elements requested.
Accessibility Notes
  • Full keyboard focus-ring navigation support (`Tab`/`Shift+Tab`).
  • ARIA roles mapped correctly for assistive screen readers.
  • Respects `prefers-reduced-motion` system toggles.
