Slideshow

Olivier Paroz edited this page Mar 16, 2016 · 6 revisions

The current slideshow is using custom code which then loads the Bigshot library to offer the zooming and full-screen capabilities.

Functionalities

Current

  • Autoplay
  • Keyboard shortcuts
  • Works on mobile, but no swipe support
  • Automatic controls hiding
  • Image pre-loading (1 image before or after)
  • Zooming (via mouse or keyboard)
  • Full-screen mode
  • Background colour switch
  • Auto-detection of broken previews

Future

  • Automatic luminance calculation to determine the colour to use for the background
  • More controls (enabled via settings)
  • Swipe support on touch devices
  • Caption
  • Social sharing
  • Thumbnails strip

Alternatives

Using an alternative all-in-one script would help reduce the time it takes to improve and maintain the current solution, but there will inevitably be trade-offs.
