## Why do we need yet another carousel component

- **Element resize support (true responsiveness)**
Most of the carousel components are responsive to the viewport size, but this is not a real responsive support as we can have an element with a `width:500px` on a `1200px` screen, most carousel component will "think" we are on a `1200px` mode because they "watch" the view-port's size and not the wrapping element's size.
This is the reason why `react-eleastic-carousel` is using the [resize-observer](https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2016/10/resizeobserver) which gives us a true responsive support, not matter on what screen size we are.

- **RTL (right-to-left) support**
Supporting right-to-left languages requires a full support for right-to-left rendering and animations which is not supported in most of the carousel components out there. also, right-to-left support is [important and should be a standard for most applications](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_3BfONFRUc).

## [Live Demos & Docs](https://sag1v.github.io/react-elastic-carousel/)

## Install

```bash
npm install --save react-elastic-carousel

### Note

`react-elastic-carousel` is using [styled-components](https://github.com/styled-components/styled-components) for styling, this means that you should install it as well:

```bash
npm install --save styled-components
```

## Usage

```jsx
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import Carousel from 'react-elastic-carousel';

class App extends Component {
state = {
items: [
{id: 1, title: 'item #1'},
{id: 2, title: 'item #2'},
{id: 3, title: 'item #3'},
{id: 4, title: 'item #4'},
{id: 5, title: 'item #5'}
]
}

render () {
const { items } = this.state;
return (

{items.map(item =>

{item.title}
)}

)
}
}
```
