Hello Guys! Welcome to Coding Torque. In this blog, I’m going to explain to you how to make a Simple Carousel(Slider) using HTML CSS, and JavaScript. You must create this project if you are a beginner or intermediate-level programmer. Let’s get started šŸš€.

Before we start, here are some JavaScript Games you might like to create:

1.Ā Snake Game using JavaScript

2.Ā 2D Bouncing Ball Game using JavaScript

3.Ā Rock Paper Scissor Game using JavaScript

4.Ā Tic Tac Toe Game using JavaScript

5. Whack a Mole Game using JavaScript

I would recommend you don’t just copy and paste the code, just look at the code and type by understanding it.
