3d Image Slider using HTML & CSS

#html #css #webdev #beginners

In this article, you will learn how to create 3d Image Slider using only HTML and CSS.

3d Image Slider is a modern image gallery that helps to organize many images beautifully. It enhances the beauty of the website as well as enhances user satisfaction a lot.

If you have knowledge of basic HTML and CSS then you can easily create a 3D Carousel slider by watching this tutorial.

Below I have shared the complete tutorial for creating this 3D image slider.

Step 1: Design the web page

I designed the webpage using the CSS code below.



body {
  margin: 0;
  background: #EEE;
  user-select: none;
  font-family: sans-serif;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Design the web page

Step 2: Create the basic structure

Now I have created a basic structure of the image slider. Slide height: 32vw and width 50%. I used transform-style: preserve-3d to make it 3d.



<section id="slider">

</section>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 


#slider {
  position: relative;
  width: 50%;
  height: 32vw;
  margin: 150px auto;
  font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;
  perspective: 1400px;
  transform-style: preserve-3d;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Step 3: Create a carousel in the slider

Now I have created five radio buttons for five images. As I said before, there is a carousel to change the images. I am using the radio button to make those carousels.



  <input type="radio" name="slider" id="s1" checked>
  <input type="radio" name="slider" id="s2">
  <input type="radio" name="slider" id="s3">
  <input type="radio" name="slider" id="s4">
  <input type="radio" name="slider" id="s5">
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 


input[type=radio] {
  position: relative;
  top: 108%;
  left: 50%;
  width: 18px;
  height: 18px;
  margin: 0 15px 0 0;
  opacity: 0.4;
  transform: translateX(-83px);
  cursor: pointer;
}


input[type=radio]:nth-child(5) {
  margin-right: 0px;
}

input[type=radio]:checked {
  opacity: 1;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Create a carousel in the slider

Step 4: Add images to 3d Image Slider

Now I just added the images to the slider. If you notice, you will understand that I have used an id in every image here. This will serve as the identity of the for and id images.



  <label for="s1" id="slide1"><img src="img1.jpg" alt=""></label>
  <label for="s2" id="slide2"><img src="img2.jpg" alt=""></label>
  <label for="s3" id="slide3"><img src="img3.jpg" alt=""></label>
  <label for="s4" id="slide4"><img src="img4.jpg" alt=""></label>
  <label for="s5" id="slide5"><img src="img5.jpg" alt=""></label>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode 


#slider label,
#slider label img {
  position: absolute;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  color: white;
  font-size: 70px;
  font-weight: bold;
  border-radius: 3px;
  cursor: pointer;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  transition: transform 400ms ease;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Add images to 3d Image Slider

Step 5: Convert slider to 3D using CSS

I have implemented the image change using the following CSS code and arranged the images in 3d format.

For center image:



#s1:checked ~ #slide1,
 #s2:checked ~ #slide2,
  #s3:checked ~ #slide3,
   #s4:checked ~ #slide4,
    #s5:checked ~ #slide5 {
  box-shadow: 0 13px 26px rgba(0,0,0, 0.3), 0 12px 6px rgba(0,0,0, 0.2);
  transform: translate3d(0%, 0, 0px);
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

For next image 1:



#s1:checked ~ #slide2,
 #s2:checked ~ #slide3,
  #s3:checked ~ #slide4,
   #s4:checked ~ #slide5,
    #s5:checked ~ #slide1 {
  box-shadow: 0 6px 10px rgba(0,0,0, 0.3), 0 2px 2px rgba(0,0,0, 0.2);
  transform: translate3d(20%, 0, -100px);
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

For next image 1

For next image 2:



#s1:checked ~ #slide3,
 #s2:checked ~ #slide4,
  #s3:checked ~ #slide5,
   #s4:checked ~ #slide1,
    #s5:checked ~ #slide2 {
  box-shadow: 0 1px 4px rgba(0,0,0, 0.4);
  transform: translate3d(40%, 0, -250px);
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

For next image 2
For prev image 1:



#s1:checked ~ #slide5,
 #s2:checked ~ #slide1,
  #s3:checked ~ #slide2,
   #s4:checked ~ #slide3,
    #s5:checked ~ #slide4 {
  box-shadow: 0 6px 10px rgba(0,0,0, 0.3), 0 2px 2px rgba(0,0,0, 0.2);
  transform: translate3d(-20%, 0, -100px);
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

For prev image 1

For Prev image 2:



#s1:checked ~ #slide4,
 #s2:checked ~ #slide5,
  #s3:checked ~ #slide1,
   #s4:checked ~ #slide2,
    #s5:checked ~ #slide3 {
  box-shadow: 0 1px 4px rgba(0,0,0, 0.4);
  transform: translate3d(-40%, 0, -250px);
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

For Prev image 2
