CDN

To start working with Slick right away, there's a couple of CDN choices availabile to serve the files as close, and fast as possible to your users:

#####Example using jsDelivr

Just add a link to the css file in your <head>:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery.slick/1.6.0/slick.css"/>
<!-- Add the slick-theme.css if you want default styling -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery.slick/1.6.0/slick-theme.css"/>

Then, before your closing <body> tag add:

<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/jquery.slick/1.6.0/slick.min.js"></script>

Package Managers

Data Attribute Settings

In slick 1.5 you can now add settings using the data-slick attribute. You still need to call $(element).slick() to initialize slick on the element.

Example:

<div data-slick='{"slidesToShow": 4, "slidesToScroll": 4}'>
  <div><h3>1</h3></div>
  <div><h3>2</h3></div>
  <div><h3>3</h3></div>
  <div><h3>4</h3></div>
  <div><h3>5</h3></div>
  <div><h3>6</h3></div>
</div>

Settings

Responsive Option Example

The responsive option, and value, is quite unique and powerful. You can use it like so:

$(".slider").slick({

  // normal options...
  infinite: false,

  // the magic
  responsive: [{

      breakpoint: 1024,
      settings: {
        slidesToShow: 3,
        infinite: true
      }

    }, {

      breakpoint: 600,
      settings: {
        slidesToShow: 2,
        dots: true
      }

    }, {

      breakpoint: 300,
      settings: "unslick" // destroys slick

    }]
});

Events

In slick 1.4, callback methods were deprecated and replaced with events. Use them before the initialization of slick as shown below:

// On swipe event
$('.your-element').on('swipe', function(event, slick, direction){
  console.log(direction);
  // left
});

// On edge hit
$('.your-element').on('edge', function(event, slick, direction){
  console.log('edge was hit')
});

// On before slide change
$('.your-element').on('beforeChange', function(event, slick, currentSlide, nextSlide){
  console.log(nextSlide);
});

Methods

Methods are called on slick instances through the slick method itself in version 1.4, see below:

// Add a slide
$('.your-element').slick('slickAdd',"<div></div>");

// Get the current slide
var currentSlide = $('.your-element').slick('slickCurrentSlide');

This new syntax allows you to call any internal slick method as well:

// Manually refresh positioning of slick
$('.your-element').slick('setPosition');

Example

Initialize with:

$(element).slick({
  dots: true,
  speed: 500
});

Change the speed with:

$(element).slick('slickSetOption', 'speed', 5000, true);

Destroy with:

$(element).slick('unslick');

Sass Variables
