Usage
Flickity works with a container element and a set of child cell elements
<div class="carousel">
<div class="carousel-cell">...</div>
<div class="carousel-cell">...</div>
<div class="carousel-cell">...</div>
...
</div>
Options
var flky = new Flickity( '.gallery', {
// options, defaults listed
accessibility: true,
// enable keyboard navigation, pressing left & right keys
adaptiveHeight: false,
// set carousel height to the selected slide
autoPlay: false,
// advances to the next cell
// if true, default is 3 seconds
// or set time between advances in milliseconds
// i.e. `autoPlay: 1000` will advance every 1 second
cellAlign: 'center',
// alignment of cells, 'center', 'left', or 'right'
// or a decimal 0-1, 0 is beginning (left) of container, 1 is end (right)
cellSelector: undefined,
// specify selector for cell elements
contain: false,
// will contain cells to container
// so no excess scroll at beginning or end
// has no effect if wrapAround is enabled
draggable: '>1',
// enables dragging & flicking
// if at least 2 cells
dragThreshold: 3,
// number of pixels a user must scroll horizontally to start dragging
// increase to allow more room for vertical scroll for touch devices
freeScroll: false,
// enables content to be freely scrolled and flicked
// without aligning cells
friction: 0.2,
// smaller number = easier to flick farther
groupCells: false,
// group cells together in slides
initialIndex: 0,
// zero-based index of the initial selected cell
lazyLoad: true,
// enable lazy-loading images
// set img data-flickity-lazyload="src.jpg"
// set to number to load images adjacent cells
percentPosition: true,
// sets positioning in percent values, rather than pixels
// Enable if items have percent widths
// Disable if items have pixel widths, like images
prevNextButtons: true,
// creates and enables buttons to click to previous & next cells
pageDots: true,
// create and enable page dots
resize: true,
// listens to window resize events to adjust size & positions
rightToLeft: false,
// enables right-to-left layout
setGallerySize: true,
// sets the height of gallery
// disable if gallery already has height set with CSS
watchCSS: false,
// watches the content of :after of the element
// activates if #element:after { content: 'flickity' }
wrapAround: false
// at end of cells, wraps-around to first for infinite scrolling
