2. The necessary CSS styles for the slider.

.slider-container {
  height: 100vh;
  display: inline-flex;
  scrollbar-width: none;
  overflow: hidden;
  scrollbar-width: none;
  transform: translateX(0);
  will-change: transform;
  transition: transform 0.3s ease-out;
  cursor: grab;
}

.slide{
  max-height: 100vh;
  width: 100vw;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  padding: 1rem;
}

@media(min-width: 1200px){
  .slide {
    padding: 3rem;
  }
}

.slide img{
  max-width: 100%;
  max-height: 100%;
  transition: transform 0.3s ease-in-out;
  box-shadow: 5px 5px 50px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0.8);
  border-radius: 4px;
}

.grabbing {
  cursor: grabbing;
}

.grabbing .slide img{
  transform: scale(0.9);
  box-shadow: 5px 5px 40px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0.8);
}

3. Include the main script app.js on the page.

<script src="app.js"></script>

4. Or insert the following JS snippets into your JS.

const slider = document.querySelector('.slider-container'),
      slides = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.slide'))
let isDragging = false,
  startPos = 0,
  currentTranslate = 0,
  prevTranslate = 0,
  animationID,
  currentIndex = 0
slides.forEach((slide, index) => {
  const slideImage = slide.querySelector('img')
  // disable default image drag
  slideImage.addEventListener('dragstart', (e) => e.preventDefault())
  // touch events
  slide.addEventListener('touchstart', touchStart(index))
  slide.addEventListener('touchend', touchEnd)
  slide.addEventListener('touchmove', touchMove)
  // mouse events
  slide.addEventListener('mousedown', touchStart(index))
  slide.addEventListener('mouseup', touchEnd)
  slide.addEventListener('mousemove', touchMove)
  slide.addEventListener('mouseleave', touchEnd)
})
// make responsive to viewport changes
window.addEventListener('resize', setPositionByIndex)
// prevent menu popup on long press
window.oncontextmenu = function (event) {
  event.preventDefault()
  event.stopPropagation()
  return false
}
function getPositionX(event) {
  return event.type.includes('mouse') ? event.pageX : event.touches[0].clientX
}
function touchStart(index) {
  return function (event) {
    currentIndex = index
    startPos = getPositionX(event)
    isDragging = true
    animationID = requestAnimationFrame(animation)
    slider.classList.add('grabbing')
  }
}
function touchMove(event) {
  if (isDragging) {
    const currentPosition = getPositionX(event)
    currentTranslate = prevTranslate + currentPosition - startPos
  }
}
function touchEnd() {
  cancelAnimationFrame(animationID)
  isDragging = false
  const movedBy = currentTranslate - prevTranslate
  // if moved enough negative then snap to next slide if there is one
  if (movedBy < -100 && currentIndex < slides.length - 1) currentIndex += 1
  // if moved enough positive then snap to previous slide if there is one
  if (movedBy > 100 && currentIndex > 0) currentIndex -= 1
  setPositionByIndex()
  slider.classList.remove('grabbing')
}
function animation() {
  setSliderPosition()
  if (isDragging) requestAnimationFrame(animation)
}
function setPositionByIndex() {
  currentTranslate = currentIndex * -window.innerWidth
  prevTranslate = currentTranslate
  setSliderPosition()
}
function setSliderPosition() {
  slider.style.transform = `translateX(${currentTranslate}px)`
}

JavaScript data types are kept easy. While JavaScript data types are mostly similar to other programming languages; some of its data types can be unique. Here, we’ll outline the data types of JavaScript.

Introduction With Basic JavaScript - Unlike most programming languages, the JavaScript language has no concept of input or output. It is designed to run as a scripting language in a host environment, and it is up to the host environment to provide mechanisms for communicating with the outside world.

The main goal of this article is help to readers to understand that how memory management system performs in JavaScript. I will use a shorthand such as GC which means Garbage Collection. When the browsers use Javascript, they need any memory location to store objects, functions, and all other things. Let’s deep in dive that how things going to work in GC.
