@ks89/angular-modal-gallery

@ks89/angular-modal-gallery is an Angular library (SSR compatible) to create image galleries.

Despite its name, this library is more than for modal galleries, because I'm introducing new features every major release. In fact, It's composed by 3 main parts:

• plain-gallery: shows either a row, a column or a grid of clickable thumbnails using pure flexbox


• modal-gallery: is the core part of this project and display a modal window with full screen images, buttons, the current image and optionally, also navigation dots and previews


• carousel: shows a configurable plain carousel (not modal) with auto-play and other cool features

@ks89/angular-modal-gallery supports also keyboard shortcuts, swipe gestures and mouse events.

:question: FAQS :question:

1. Question: How can I remove images using DELETE button without issues?

Answer: You cannot change the input image array. Instead, you should reassign it with a newer array without the deleted element.
In other words, you must think in a functional way, without changing the input array of images.
For more information check this official demo HERE.

Check CONTRIBUTING.md in this repository.
To understand how to contribute to an open source project, HERE you can find useful information.

When you create a pull request, please, format your code to be consistent with the existing code. I suggest to use WebStorm as IDE and when you commit don't use a third party software, but the official command line git.
In this way, prettier will run using my configuration, and it will auto-format the code. If it fails, add files with git add . again and retry.
