Embla-carousel: The slider missing autoplay option

Hi @davidcetinkaya

It's would be good if you add autoplay option too.

Thanks for this awesome slider !

Hi @omarkhatibco,

Thank you for reporting this issue.

I'm planning on publishing some code examples on how to get started and implement some features soon (on either https://codepen.io/ or https://codesandbox.io/), so I'll be sure to include an example for autoplay.

Thanks! @davidcetinkaya

Hello Omar @omarkhatibco ,
First off, thank you for reporting this!

I've created a trivial example of how to achieve autoplay with Embla Carousel in this CodeSandbox. I hope it helps and feel free to tweak it to your liking =).

I know, all slider plugins have autoplay. I really understand that =). But since Embla Carousel’s purpose is to provide tools for building great carousels rather than having a bunch of features out of the box, I'm not going to add this into the Embla core unless it does get a lot of traction. I hope this makes sense.

With that said, feel free to ask any questions and don't hesitate to open a new issue again if you think Embla is missing an important tool or feature.

Thank you!

Hi Omar @omarkhatibco,

Have you had the chance to check out the CodeSandbox link and my response above?

Cheers 👍🏻

Thank you, this Example is what I need.

Hey @davidcetinkaya , the codesandbox link is dead. Could you create a new one? :)

Woops, i noticed there is an example on the examples page. For future reference: https://codesandbox.io/s/embla-carousel-autoplay-vanilla-e5ihq
