There are some CSS Variables that will help you style the carousel:

| Name | Default | Description |
| -------------------------------- | ------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| --slider-gap | 0 | Sets the gap between slides |
| --slider-nav-margin-top | 0.5rem | Sets the top margin of the navigation buttons |
| --slider-button-width | 2.5rem | Sets the navigation buttons width |
| --slider-button-height | 2.5rem | Sets the navigation buttons height |
| --slider-button-padding | 0.2rem | Sets the padding of the navigation buttons |

If this is not enough, you can always style via CSS classes. They all have low specificity so they are easy to overwrite, but be careful, changing this elements could cause the carousel to break. Try to limit the changes to colors, background, etc. to prevent unexpected results.

| Class | Description |
| --------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| .carousel | The main carousel wrapper |
| .carousel__slider | The carousel scroller |
| .carousel__slide | The wrapper for each slide |
| .carousel__nav | The wrapper for the navigation buttons |
| .carousel__button | The navigation buttons |
