The aim behind the Ideal Image Slider is to create a slider which has just the right amount of features, with no bloat and be easy to extend so that more features can be added as “extensions”. Here are the ideals and core features I wanted to include:
– HTML5 (SEO optimised)
– CSS3 transitions (a few simple transitions like slide/fade)
– Left/Right navigation (including touch/swipe support)
– Responsive
– HiDPI (retina) support
– ARIA support
– Extremely simple to setup (no dependencies)
– Very extensible
– Uses progressive enhancement
– Open source (goes without saying)
