Circular Slider

Overview

Circular Slider gives scroll a circular rhythm. Each item rotates into attention before making room for the next.

Use Circular Slider when visual browsing needs a stronger mechanic than a plain slider. Portfolio pages, product visuals, and campaign galleries can use it when rotation reinforces the art direction. The page job is motion identity: the way items move becomes part of the brand surface.

In production, the risk is control clarity. Rotation must not hide the active slide, disorient keyboard users, or autoplay important content past the visitor.

Usage

Component Code

Example Production Use Case

A portfolio page using a circular visual system: Circular Slider makes the browsing mechanic match the brand geometry. The outcome is motion identity: the interaction feels designed into the system, not attached later.

Best Used For

• Equal-weight testimonials or features where taking turns suits the content better than comparison.
• Testimonial or feature sets where items take turns holding focus.
• Circular Slider creates a concrete scroll outcome that a static section would not deliver.

Not For

• Not for important proof, pricing, or long text where rotation makes content feel optional.
• Not for testimonials or features that should remain visible as proof at all times.

Performance Budget

Animate transform and opacity, avoid layout reads in scroll handlers, pre-size media, and clean up timelines/listeners when the route changes.

Accessibility and Mobile

The animated sequence must match DOM order. On mobile, replace pinned or horizontal mechanics with stacked sections, native swipe, or static cards.

Common Mistakes

• Rotating important proof out of view too quickly.
• Shipping continuous motion without pause or static fallback.Letting the turning cadence overpower the item content.
