Hello dear blog readers. Today I present to you a useful a selection of free jQuery sliders with examples. If you still decide to put an image slider on your resource, this selection will be very useful to you, and, believe me, you have plenty to choose from. Moreover, all sliders with examples, and each of them you can try in action. In general, I will not distract, choose :-)

Large and very beautiful image slider with interesting text scrolling.

Scrolling images with hints
Interesting scrolling images that scroll continuously and smoothly. By default, there are images of different fruits that you can change to your own.
jQuery big arrow slider
An interesting slider with large pink arrows that change size by zooming in on the image.
You need to add "forward" and "back" buttons.
To do this, you need to supplement the code written earlier.
HTML code for the new slider
The entire structure of the slider will remain the same. Two containers will be added to the markup, which will act as buttons.
Slider styles
The buttons will take their place thanks to absolute positioning relative to the container.slider-box
Slider-box( position : relative ; width : 320px ; height : 210px ; overflow : hidden ; ) .slider( position : relative ; width : 10000px ; height : 210px ; ) .slider img( float : left ; ) .slider-box .prev , .slider-box .next( position : absolute ; top : 100px ; display : block ; width : 29px ; height : 29px ; cursor : pointer ; ) .slider-box .prev( left : 10px ; background : url ( ../images/slider_controls.png ) no-repeat 0 0 ; ) .slider-box .next( right : 10px ; background : url (../images/slider_controls.png ) no-repeat -29px 0 ; )
Script
The slider scrolls automatically. By default, the movement goes from left to right, but if necessary, you can change the direction of its movement using the course variable. When changing the value of the variable from 1 to -1, the direction of the slider will change.
Images in a slider should not change when the cursor is within the slider. What is it for? Everything is simple. If the mouse cursor is located on the slider, it means that the site visitor is interested in its content. At this time, do not change slides automatically.
$(function () ( var slider = $(".slider" ) , sliderContent = slider.html () , // Slider content slideWidth = $(".slider-box") .outerWidth() , // Slider Width slideCount = $(".slider img") .length , // Number of slides prev = $(".slider-box .prev" ) , // Back button next = $(".slider-box .next" ) , // Forward button sliderInterval = 3300 , // Interval for changing slides animateTime = 1000 , // Time to change slides course = 1 // Slider movement direction (1 or -1) margin = - slideWidth; // Initial Slides Offset$(".slider img:last" ) .clone () .prependTo (".slider" ) ; // A copy of the last slide is placed at the beginning.$(".slider img" ) .eq (1 ) .clone () .appendTo (".slider" ) ; // A copy of the first slide is placed at the end.$(".slider" ) .css ("margin-left" , - slideWidth) ; // Container.slider is shifted to the left by the width of one slide. function nextSlide() ( // Runs the animation() function to perform the slide transition. interval = window.setInterval (animate, sliderInterval) ; ) function animate() ( if (margin==- slideCount* slideWidth- slideWidth) ( // If the slider has reached the end slider.css (( "marginLeft" :- slideWidth) ) ; // then block.slider returns to its initial position margin=- slideWidth* 2 ; ) else if (margin== 0 && course==- 1 ) ( // If the slider is at the beginning and the back button is pressed slider.css (( "marginLeft" :- slideWidth* slideCount) ) ; // then block.slider moves to final position margin=- slideWidth* slideCount+ slideWidth; ) else ( // If above conditions fail, margin = margin - slideWidth* (course) ; // margin value is set to show the next slide) slider.animate (( "marginLeft" : margin) , animateTime) ; // Block.slider moves to the left by 1 slide.) function sliderStop() ( // Function to stop the slider window.clearInterval(interval); )prev.click(function()( // Back button pressed var course2 = course; course = - 1 ; animate() ; // Call the animate() function course = course2 ; ) ) ; next.click(function()( // Back button pressed if (slider.is (":animated" ) ) ( return false ; ) // If no animation occurs var course2 = course; // Temporary variable to store the value of course course = 1 ; // Set slider direction from right to left animate() ; // Call the animate() function course = course2 ; // The course variable returns to its original value) ) ; slider.add(next) .add(prev) .hover(function()( // If the mouse cursor is within the slider sliderStop() ; // The sliderStop() function is called to pause the slider) , nextSlide); // When the cursor leaves the slider, the animation resumes. nextSlide() ; // Call nextSlide() function } ) ;It turned out such a slider with the buttons "forward" and "back"
From the author: despite rumors about the alleged “death” of the part of web pages visible without scrolling, the need for a good slider has not disappeared anywhere. Let's be honest for a second - sliders are fun. In addition, nothing else, unlike moving content, causes a “wow” effect in the user. All sliders are a set of several slides that replace each other and it is extremely important that the slider code be as light as possible. This is where jQuery comes in handy.
Take a look at 20 jQuery sliders from Envato Market and you'll see that there are sliders that are more than just a slider block.
1. RoyalSlider - Touchscreen Image Gallery with jQuery
Now a responsive slider that is also touchscreen friendly means a lot more than it used to. RoyalSlider combines both features: adaptability and work with touch screens. A good choice as the gallery is written in HTML5 and CSS3.
A few interesting features:
How to create a website yourself?
SEO optimization
High customizability
Over 10 starter templates
There is a fallback for CSS3 transitions
In my opinion, the coolest feature is the “modular script architecture”, which allows you to disable unnecessary things from the main JS file, thereby reducing weight. RoyalSlider, a jQuery touchscreen image gallery, is a robust JavaScript slider that should be a must-have for any developer's toolkit.
2. Slider Revolution Responsive jQuery Plugin
It's not easy to do something "revolutionary" with a slider. When it comes to sliders, there are so many features you can add to them. However, Slider Revolution is a really good try. Among jQuery sliders, this instance meets all your possible requirements.
The list of slider features is so long, so I will list only the very best:
Parallax effect and custom animation
Unlimited layers and slides with links
ready to use, deeply customizable styles
and much more
Possibility to add image, built-in video player and links from social networks makes Slider Revolution one of the most flexible and customizable options on the web.
3. LayerSlider Responsive jQuery slider plugin
The title "LayerSlider Responsive jQuery Slider Plugin" doesn't really do justice to this slider.
200+ 2D and 3D slide transitions will turn anyone's head.
A couple of notable features:
13 skins and 3 menu types
Ability to place a fixed image on top of the slider
And jQuery fallback
And much more
As with the previous slider, almost any content can be added, even HTML5 resident multimedia content. The LayerSlider brings the sliders to life and is also very pretty.
4. jQuery Banner Rotator / Slideshow
jQuery Banner Rotator / Slideshow is a pretty simple slider that doesn't sacrifice any of the core functionality.
Capabilities:
Tooltips, text inserts, etc.
Preview and various options for viewing components
Timer with a delay for one slider or for all
Multiple transitions for all slides or different transitions for each one individually
jQuery Banner Rotator / Slideshow has only basic features compared to other jQuery sliders, but you should not forget about it.
5. All In One Slider - Responsive jQuery Slider Plugin
Any slider that appears on the web has its own unique vision and solves any problems in its field. But not this one. All In One Slider can be called "all inclusive".
I think most web developers and designers have a proven solution, but they are always looking for something new. And this "something new" includes:
Banner rotator
preview banner
Playlist banner
Content Slider
Carousel
All slider types support most, if not all, of the functionality required by jQuery sliders. Will All In One Slider be your All Inclusive?
6. UnoSlider - Responsive touchscreen slider
If your slider is not responsive and does not support touch screens, then you have the wrong slider. UnoSlider is correct.
This slider has found its place in the sun between simplicity and rich feature set. Functions:
Theme Support
12 pre-made themes
40 transitions
IE6+ support
All features with a focus on design and style, making UnoSlider a great content slider with the ability to add themes.

Looking for "one jQuery slider to rule them all"? Try Master Slider – jQuery touchscreen slider for different screen sizes…
When it comes to good design, this example is one of the best:
Over 25 templates
Hardware accelerated transitions
Touch and swipe support
And much more
Interactive transitions, animated layers and hotspots will definitely grab your attention. Master Slider is a work of art.
8. TouchCarousel - jQuery content scroller and slider
TouchCarousel attracts with free support and updates. However, this is not all the features of this lightweight jQuery carousel slider.
If the name contains the word "touch", you can guess that the slider is fully responsive and supports touch. Other features:
SEO optimization
Smart autoplay
CSS3 hardware accelerated transitions
Customizable UI and 4 skins for Photoshop
TouchCarousel, because of its unique physical slide scrolling, is a whole new level of experience on mobile devices.

jQuery sliders can be used not only on websites. They can also be useful in web applications. Advanced Slider allows you to do this.
With HTML or XML markup, this advanced slider makes a lasting impression:
Animated Layers and Smart Video
100+ transitions and 150+ custom properties
15 slider skins, 7 scrollbar skins and native lightbox support
Keyboard navigation, touch support and full customization
And much more
However, the most best feature it's Advanced Slider - jQuery XML Slider API, which makes the slider the perfect choice for your web application.
10. jQuery Slider Zoom In/Out Effect Fully Responsive
One of those jQuery sliders that will make you want to watch a demo before you start reading about its features. You just want to understand what this "zoom in/out effect" means.
The zoom effect is rather weak, but it adds a sense of control and a real touch to the image while the rest of the slider is static. Slider features:
CSS3 layer transitions
Animation end option for layers
Fixed Width, Full Screen, and Full Width Options
Animated text with HTML and CSS formatting
Most sliders try to pack in as many effects as possible, and the jQuery Slider Zoom In/Out Effect Fully Responsive only has a Ken Burns effect, but it's well implemented.
11. jQuery Carousel Evolution
Like the aforementioned Advanced Slider - jQuery XML Slider, jQuery Carousel Evolution has its own API that can be used to enhance functionality or integrate the slider into another project.
