Introduction to our GenZ Carousel App

An image carousel (or slider) is a UI component that displays one image at a time, with options to cycle through a list of images.

Our version includes:

  • A custom image upload input
  • A set of default images for first-time visitors
  • Smooth transitions between images using framer-motion
  • Thumbnail previews that users can click to jump to a specific image
  • A responsive, visually engaging design styled with CSS and Tailwind

The carousel is interactive, personalized (with your uploaded images), and visually polished with animated effects.

  • User input handling
  • File reading with URL.createObjectURL
  • Dynamic rendering based on state
  • Conditional styling and thumbnail selection
