reflex-blossom-carousel 0.0.1

Reflex wrapper for Blossom Carousel — a native-scroll-first carousel with pointer drag support.

reflex-blossom-carousel

A Reflex custom component that wraps Blossom Carousel — a native-scroll-first carousel enhanced with physics-based drag for pointer devices (0 KB on touch).

Status: beta. The component wrapper is implemented and tested. Design and API are documented under specs/ following Spec-Driven Design (SDD).

Why

Reflex has no built-in carousel. Blossom Carousel builds on native browser scrolling (full performance + accessibility) and ships an official React package (@blossom-carousel/react, MIT). This project wraps it so you can use it from pure Python in Reflex.

Usage

import reflex as rx
from reflex_blossom_carousel import blossom_carousel

def index() -> rx.Component:
    carousel = blossom_carousel(
        *[rx.el.li(str(i + 1), class_name="slide") for i in range(12)],
        as_="ul",
        class_name="carousel",
        repeat=False,
        load="conditional",
    )
    return rx.vstack(
        carousel,
        rx.hstack(
            rx.button("Previous", on_click=carousel.prev(align="center")),
            rx.button("Next", on_click=carousel.next(align="center")),
        ),
    )
