Carousel
Cross-Fade Slider
Frames change by dissolving instead of sliding: the slides sit stacked in one grid cell, dots page through them, and the caption travels with the frame.
React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.
What you can change
- the set of frames through slides: a title, a text and a hue for each
- the frame proportions through ratio: 16:9, 4:3 or 21:9
- the caption placement through captionPlace: over the frame or as a line below it
A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ
- How do I add Cross-Fade Slider with Cursor or Claude Code?
- Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
- What does Cross-Fade Slider depend on?
- No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
- What can I change in Cross-Fade Slider?
- Adapt: the set of frames through slides: a title, a text and a hue for each; the frame proportions through ratio: 16:9, 4:3 or 21:9; the caption placement through captionPlace: over the frame or as a line below it. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-carousel-018-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; the stack of slides in one grid cell: without it the block height jumps on every change; the change by opacity rather than by sliding — that is the whole difference from a strip: a hero changes mood, it does not show a list.
- Is Cross-Fade Slider free?
- Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

Technical notes
A client component: the index of the current slide lives in useState and the pager dots switch it. One file, no dependencies, the palette in the local --vibeui-carousel-018-* variables. The slides do not travel as a strip: they sit in one grid cell (grid-area:1/1) and change opacity, so the frame does not jump and the height holds itself. The frames are painted with gradients from the --vibeui-carousel-018-hue tone; there are no images in the item. Every dot is a real button with the slide title as its label and aria-current, and around the visible 8-pixel circle there is an invisible 24-pixel hit area; arrows, Home and End walk the row. The slide caption sits in an aria-live="polite" region and switches with the frame, while its place is set by the captionPlace prop: over the frame behind a gradient scrim, or as a separate line below it.
